Zipped, Mr. Washington!

Another bucket list thing crossed off! I went with some very close friends to the West side of SD and went zip-lining at the Rushmore Caves! It wasn't regular zip-lining, it was more like a ride, and it was not very long, but the adrenaline was there! It was great! I did also see Crazy Horse, Mount Rushmore, Saloon No. 10, ate at a Social Club, got sillay, read Hunger Games, and got to laugh a ton with the people I was with. :) It was a trip that will never be forgotten!

short blog, yes. Adventure over? No. Way.
Stay tuned.

Reach for the Sky 2012

So yes, it may be April, but I have already accomplished one of my bucket list goals for 2012...twice. I went Polar Bearing. This was not my first time, in fact, it was my tenth year doing it in Milwaukee on New Year's Day. I also did it in Brookings, SD in March to raise money for the Special Olympics. The day was 80 degrees, but the ice-filled water was still a shock to the system. It is an exhilarating experience that I definitely recommend! Things I have learned through doing the Polar Plunge:

Always wear shoes. Always.
Don't think. Just run and jump in.
Have fun! Make it a tradition!

Try it sometime! Live a little!
