    Hiking, camping, gardening, barbecuing, taking my dog to the beach and chilling in the garden with a very cold glass of white wine at the end of the day.

    I'm taking my daughter and niece to Europe. I don't think we'll make the Olympics, but may pass through London while it's going on.

    Going kayaking and not looking like a whale in my boat.
    When we go snorkeling,not worrying about my booty showing above the water.
    Buying new clothes that show a figure off instead of hiding it.
    Looking good in a bathing suit!

    Some great conferences and travel for work: the Dominican Republic and Vegas. The DR will entail drinks on the beach and my first 2-piece in public in over 8 years! Then Vegas will be Cirque du Soleil and hiking in the desert. Other than that, a BAZILLION projects around my house. =]

    I want to lose enough so I can go bicycling again and actually enjoy it.
    I want to go Mt, Desert Island and Bar Harbor Camping, bicycling and just hanging out.
    Gardening and growing vegetables.
    Riding my lawn tractor mowing the lawn.
    Going to the beach.
    Etc.

    SO much:

    - Reaching Onderland
    - Overnight hiking on Mount Baldy
    - River rafting
    - River floating - with beers, pretty sure this outdoor activity burns 0 calories
    - Rock climbing for the first time
    - Camping, maybe
    - Wearing more shorts and skirts than last summer
    - Biking EVERYWHERE
    - Finding my way to an ocean coast, I don't live anywhere near the sea but always somehow manage to get to a beach every year.
