My Durham Summer Bucket List

So, summer's here, and the kids are out of school.  I am definitely looking for ways to keep the kids occupied and happy, and there are certain places to go and things to do that we definitely can't forget this summer.  To make sure we get to as many as we can, I decided to write it down.  So, read our Durham summer bucket list and please, feel free to tell us your favorite summertime activity so we can add it to the list!
