Invite all of your friends over and just relax next to a fire for the night. Tell your college stories, roast marshmallows, and reminisce about old times.

If its a nice easy hike with some awesome waterfalls along the way or a challenging hike in the Adirondacks getting out into nature and hiking all day is always fun and a nice workout.

4. Take a road trip.
Get in the car with a couple of your best friends and go on an adventure for a day or the weekend.
5. Go to a Major League Baseball game.
