If we're talking strictly "outside", the answer would be "not much". Where I live, we seem to mostly have weather that makes "outside" not a great proposition. Winter is cold and rainy. Summer is too humid to want to do much in. Spring and autumn are silly with misery-inducing allergens in the air.

That said, we live near a number of rivers and streams. So, when it's warm enough and the water hasn't been recently junked-up from stormy weather, we like to either take the dogs down to the river to play or throw our kayaks on my wife's car and go find a stream or river to put into.

If we're speaking more broadly (and apart from "errands"), then:

  • Movies - we probably average 15 movies/year at the local multiplex
  • Concerts - we probably take in one to five shows per month (depending who's touring) plus a festival or two each year
  • Go to local wineries

You'll note that I use "we" above. I'm married so, wife has primary control of the social calendar.

Culture would be if they were to Rust to local wineries.
Go is an affliction.
