100 Days from today...

It'll be the end of summer, August 28th (days from Labor Day). What did your summer look like?

Will you look back and say - wow! I enjoyed myself these last few months, I did things that I wouldn't have tried in the past? Or will you pause and look with regret of what was missed because you didn't want to try? Were you afraid, embarrassed? Let's face those fears!

Here's a short bucket list of fun activities I want to do this summer - what's on your list??

Fly a kite
Play hopscotch & jump rope with my nieces
Buy a new bathing suit and go to the beach
Ride my bike on a group ride
Explore my neighborhood and city on foot.. and bike (and use my car as little as possible)
Yoga at Millennium Park - outdoors and free!
Kayak rental
Walking Architectural tour

I will add more at a later time - inspire me!

    Take my nieces to Kemah boardwalk again
    Take my fiance Eat at Bubba Gump Shrimp (because she's never had it and everytime we drive by one she says "I've never been to a Bubba Gump restaurant, we should go!")
    Hit the beach as often as possible
    Climb to the top of Enchanted Rock
    See the bats fly in Austin
    See the Houston zoo again (haven't been since I was little)
    See the Houston museum of art and science.

    There, a list. I'm actually going to write this down somewhere so I can check them off!
