1. Go to Hippy Hole in the Black Hills (How have I never gone?) 2. Take Matt to the Devil's Bathtubs in the Black Hills. (twice in 2017) 3. International Travel before Amos needs a ticket (uh, this one's already a fail. oops)  4. Move to a bigger house (rent? buy?) 5. Camp in the Badlands (again, how have I never?) 6. Complete a Project 365 (I did not make it all 365 days in 2017, but I persevered.) 7. Take Amos up Harney Peak (or Black Elk Peak, whatever) 8. Print out at least ONE photo book (for Amos, or family, or the coffee table, or whatever) 9. Get back into rock climbing shape and go climb some rocks! 10. Ski again (it's been YEARS, people. PS I didn't break anything.) 11. 30 days of random acts of kindness (this would be fun to do with Amos as he gets older) 12. Research and support a child through a good charity. 13. Take an actual over-night backpacking trip. 14. A Red Rocks Concert -every concert I wanted to go to has sold out alre

Reading Challenge: update

As a review, I am working on the Light Reader section in the reading challenge.  Books one and two:  A biography: Hillbilly Elegy -highly recommend A book with at least 400 pages -All the Light We Cannot See -also highly recommend Book three: A book about Christian living: Love into Light -good, challenging, convicting. Go read it. Book four:  A book for teens or young adults: Me and Earl and the Dying Girl -currently reading. I already don't love it. I did love The Fault in Our Starts. And I didn't love The Catcher in the Rye. This book is kind of reminding me of a mix of those two. Kind of.
