National Eat Outside Day is celebrated the last day of
August, regardless of which day of the week it falls. It’s a simple holiday,
really. All that’s required is to eat something in the fresh air. If you really
want to enjoy this day to its fullest, you’ll want to put in a bit more effort.
You might like to take a bucket of fried chicken to a quiet, shady spot in the
park. You could make a few sandwiches and spread a blanket in your own back
yard. Or maybe you could savor a loaded hot dog and a soft drink while watching
a ball game. Heather and I decided we’ll have chicken tacos near the skate
park. There are tables under an awning where we can watch dads teaching their
kids to use skateboards. When we’re done, we can toss out our paper wrappers
and leave the chicken, cheese, lettuce and tortilla crumbs for the birds.
