30 years

I turned 30 today. I haven't written on this blog in years. But today seems like as good a day as any. We live in western Maryland now and have a beautiful 22-month old boy named Eli. I'm hoping this year to complete some really cool things that have been on my list for a while. Maybe I'll use this blog to track my progress and post photos. So here's a brif summary of the list: 1. Kayak Acadia National Park 2. Bike the 184-mile C&O Canal Path. (and possibly the Greater Allegeny Path as well) 3. Go on at least 5 camping trips- at least 2 of which includes bringing Eli 4. Take the kayaks out at least 5 times this year. 5. Bike at least 500 miles. 6. Hike at least 100 miles 7. Read 36 books. (I'm already running behind on that) 8. Read the whole Bible 9. Start volunteering in the community somewhere. 10. Work out/exercise at least 3 times per week. So that's not the whole thing, but it's a start. Basically, I want to look back at the end of the year and see that I didn't just cruise through the year.
