Things to do While I’m Alive

As I've mentioned in a previous post, my friend and I wrote lists when we were younger of the "Things To Do BEFORE Turning 30," and that list has stuck around for along time now. The big thing I'm determined to do IS to finish seeing ALL 50 STATES before my 30th birthday, but the rest of list is a combination of the "by 30" list and new things that I want to challenge myself to do! Just thought I'd share--- maybe it will inspire my to cross a few more off the list this year :)
