Date ideas?

So, here's the deal. I've been with my current girlfriend for about two months, and so far things are going pretty great. But the problem is, we've just flat out run out of stuff to do...or so we seem to think.

Going out for coffee? Did it. Dinner/Movie? Done that. Museums? Hit those etc.


So, what do we do? I really don't even know now, and even though we can have a great time without really even going anywhere, I'm afraid our dates may soon become too stale and predictable. So, any help would be greatly appreciated.


Oh, and she's not of legal drinking age, so things of that nature are out of the question.
 
Go play tennis, or maybe go hang at a pet store for a little while (assuming neither of you are allergic). Chicks love puppies. A lot of flight schools will offer "discovery" flights for $50 or so. They'll take y'all up and let y'all take the controls and fly the plane for a few minutes. That one worked real well. Houston's not too far from the coast, how about y'all go fishing, or find someone to offer surfing lessons.
 
concerts/shows.
hiking/camping.
romantic places you can do it.
shopping(girls love to shop)
bowling
pumpkin picking
apple picking
state parks
historical parts of texas

As well as...

the zoo
laser tag
go-karting
batting cages
rock climbing
roller-blading
drive-in theatre (wink wink)
skating (you guys have indoor ice rinks?)
sailing/boating on a lake
camping at a lake (got a cottage/cabin?)
day out in the city
romantic, homecooked candlelit dinner by the fire
drive through the country



Getting some ideas yet?
 
this worked for me, but it really depends on the type of people you two are. go to barnes and noble or borders and give each other 10 minutes to find 3-5 books that you would be interested in reading. then find a table in the coffee shop part of the store and talk about what books what you picked and why. if that doesn't use enough time, do the same thing with dvd's or cd's. you'll probably end up learning a lot about each other
