2015 Goals

Here are some things I hope to do in 2015 (in no particular order.)

1. Make it to my 50th state. About 14 years ago I was up to 49 states and I just have not had reason to visit my final state, Louisiana. Here is hoping this is the year I make it to New Orleans!

2. Complete an overnight backpacking trip. I don't think I have been backpacking since my Alaskan honeymoon almost 18 years ago!

3. Go to more live music- especially a concert at Red Rocks and Rockygrass in Lyons.

4. Go on a Xc ski or snowshoe hut trip.

5. Become a Grosvenor Teacher Fellow. The competition is stiff but a girls gotta dream!

6. Complete the RMNP Hiking Challenge: In celebration the the 100th Anniversary of becoming a National Park I want to hike 100 miles. I am going to use my friend's Rich and Holly's strict definition of unique miles which means six miles out and back will only count as three miles. In addition, I will make it a goal to get to RMNP at least once a month in order to see it in all the seasons.

7. Once and for all conquer my sweet tooth- not even sure if this goal is POSSIBLE but I sure do feel better when I stay away from sugar and flour.
