Summers in Reno bring great opportunities for lovin’

The same goes for Don Henley singing “The Boys of Summer.” The boys of winter just wouldn’t conjure up the same images of hot days, bikinis, baseball and steamy lovin’ in the locker room or something like that.

Although romance can be found in the falling leaves, curled up by a fire while it snows or on a sunny spring day, no season represents lust like summer does. Unless you’re superhuman and can withstand the sweltering 100-degree temperatures, you’re going to have to take some clothes off.

I know it’s hard to leave behind the security blanket known as your hooded sweater with Nevada embroidered on it, but trust me, it will hurt so good.  The gradual peeling of clothes and shortening of skirts automatically equals raised levels of sexiness during the summer.

And it’s not just fun for girls to break out their shorts and skirts—it drives guys crazy since all they’ve been seeing the past five months are Ugg boots and full-length body armor to protect you from the snow and their prying eyes.

So now that summer is upon us, we must decide what we can do to make this summer an unforgettable one filled with romance and sexual escapades, or sexcapades, if you will.

Reno may not seem like the ideal summer place. There isn’t a beach with white sand, palm trees or anything that screams tropical.

But don’t forget that Lake Tahoe is just a short drive away and, believe it or not, it is a famous vacation destination. Pack a lunch and your boyfriend/girlfriend/favorite flavor of the week, drive up early and spend your day lying on the sand, braving the water and reveling in the fact that you are wearing very little clothing.

At some beaches like Kings Beach you can go parasailing and rent jet skis. It will be easy to forget that you’re only an hour away from home.

Stick around and watch the sunset. Chicks dig sunsets. You can spout off something cheesy like “This sunset is almost as beautiful as your eyes,” but chances are your reward is already in the bag.

If you can’t make it to the lake for a romantic getaway, don’t underestimate how fun taking a trip to the river can be. Whether you go kayaking, strolling or just sitting down and watching the activity, it is definitely a good summer getaway and a potential ice breaker when it comes to expressing your undying devotion, holding someone’s hand for the first time or letting her know that her name must be Daisy because you want to plant her right here.

So don’t let this summer just pass you by. No school and warm weather are much too good to let go to waste. The world is priming you for romance, so go get it!
