Summer Fun: You Think This Is Hot?

Summer Fun is back for seconds after a pause for floods and gay marriage

OK, we cheated. We’re on Chronicle time; what can we tell you? We launched summer with our Summer Fun issue back in late-May – a full month before the Solstice, nature’s true, official kick-off to the season.

Oh, honey. Summer's far from over. We're barely at the half-way mark. Lucky for you, our 2015 Summer Fun Calendar is stuffed (like that suitcase your mom used to make you sit on so she could close it before family vacation) with events through mid-September.

Be sure to check the forecast, dress and pack accordingly, then get out and get you some of that patented Austin Summer Fun.
