I recommend the Geocaching! It can be a lot of fun (sorry you didn't have any luck). All you really need to get started is a GPS to track down your target, a computer to get the directions, and a bit of luck sometimes. You might not even need the GPS - Google Earth can get you pretty close too. Some small items to trade are also handy, if you plan on checking out the contents of the cache.
Some are easy to find and some are really tough. I've found quite a few - but there is one very small one in the parking lot of my local supermarket that has been eluding me for years. The bigger the geo-cache, the easier they are to find (usually).
Oh, and here's another suggested activity for you: Learn to kayak or canoeOnce you are out on the water, it leads to lots of other interesting things: Animals, plants, geology, history, other boats, people, etc. Just be sure to learn how to do it safely.
Cool suggestion
thanks
We did actually find one Geocash on our last attempt! I was excited
Thanks for the suggestions everyone, I've been sort of not-allowed-online-for-a-few-days, but I will update the list when I can

This is quite a cool and not so little post, I really like your fun, creative and abstract ideas for things to do this summer when you're bored, I might try a few [or a bunch] of them out.
This reminds me of an old book I have and used when I was little titled something like "Fun things to do - in the summer" that had fun ideas similar to this but had colorful pages which I liked as a little kid. It was also pretty fun to try 'em out and rate them.

Try to ournal, but in a fun style. My journal is all Diary of a Wimpy Kid style, with the drawings and lack of emotion.
I mainly try to be funny and realistic.

This list sounds fun! I'll definently try Geocaching, and Evil Operator sounds fun too.
I'll try for most of the items on this list.

I guess this is kind of stick-in-the-mud-y but you shouldn't really get a pet on a whim, especially something unusual like a chinchilla if you don't know what it needs. Getting a pet is awesome (though I dont have one
) but some kinds of pets die easily and that would suck for you and the pet (mostly the pet). And sometimes pets need things that you don't know they need, like turtles need a special tank and sunlamp and you're not supposed to pick them up, and chinchillas can't be over 75 degrees Fahrenheit or they literally overheat and die if you don't cool them down.

I didn't say anything about finding out about the pet's needs, but I had figured it was implied
