School supplies are on the shelf. College kids are ready to get on campus. It’s just a matter of days before you’re back in a routine.
But it’s only August third, and despite all the telltale signs of summer coming to a screeching halt, there are still plenty of ways you can stretch out the summer feels this month. After all, Fall doesn’t technically start until September 22.
We’re going to help you squeeze the last vacation vibes out of the sunshine with our families this month with some great local ideas. Every week this month, we are featuring way to celebrate the Last Best Days of Summer.

This week, make sure you grab a burger and milkshake at the newly re-opened Duke’s Drive-In, 19990 South La Grange Road, in Mokena.
If you’re old enough and local enough to remember, Duke’s was formerly located on 79th and Harlem in Bridgeview.
The Lally family has stayed true-blue to the original Duke’s with the same recipes, same ingredients and the same drive-in vibe.
You can even stop by on any Friday evening to catch some amazing classic cars lined up for Cruise Night
Our personal Duke’s favorite is the pineapple milkshake, but if your jam is a real Chicago hotdog, a Beef with Sweet or a genuine Tom-Tom tamale, stop by for a real taste of summer.
And make sure to say hi to the Lally family!
Let's catch up next week for another great Last Best Days of Summer Idea!
