Mid-Life Fun!



So I asked the "Good Neighbors of Roseville" for some ideas on how mid-lifer's in our area can have some inexpensive fun. While some of these were not so inexpensive, the colorful variety resonates so much fun!

  • Visit some local wineries- particularly the Placer County Wine Trail- I was concerned about having an appointed driver and was informed that there is a small bus that drives you around. The Old Sugar Mill Winery in Sacramento was also suggested. 
  • Sacramento River Boat Cruise- There is also a stationary "Murder Mystery' dinner where you can become part of the crime scene.
  • The Tokyo Steak House was recommended as a unique and flavorful experience that is reasonably priced. 
  • Ice Skating
  • Bowling
  • The all-new 'Studio Movie Grill' in Rocklin, serves dinner while you watch a movie
  • Sky High- bounce house
  • Indoor Race Cars
  • Miniature golf
  • Lazer tag
  • Horse Back Riding in Granite Bay or Gibson Ranch
  • Bike ride; try the trail from Lake Natoma all the way down to Sacramento
  • Wine and Paint
  • Take the train to San Francisco for the day
  • Find other couples to switch off hosting a game night with differing ethnic food themes
  • Visit the Opera House in Roseville. They offer dance classes  
  • Food-truck night down town Roseville, the fourth Thursday each month
  • House of Oliver, for dinner and live Jazz music
  • Paint and Wine
  • "The Place" is an Italian Restaurant - first Thursday of the month offers free appetizers with purchase of drinks and live Jazz music.
  • Kayaking at Lake Natoma
  • Roller Skating
  • Indoor rock climbing
  • Petroglyph in Roseville-
  • Hiking to one of the many beautiful waterfalls in our area
  • A drive and picnic in a local wildlife refuge such as Grey Lodge
  • Last but not least, here is a link with 100 great and inexpensive date-night ideas!

So glad I asked that question. This year may just well be a year of new experiences!
