My 101 in 1001

I am jumping on a bandwagon.... the 101 things in 1001 days bandwagon. Basically you pick 101 things you want to accomplish in 1001 days. It's a bucket-list/goal type thing. Since we are very up in the air right now about next year and what we will be doing, I'm leaving 21 of these blank. When we find out what we are doing and where we are going then I'll fill in the rest. I'll also try to take pictures of the things I can. I'm using this blog as a journal for my journey.

In case you don't know, Mike's commitment is up in August of 2014. We can stay in the military or get out and try to start a practice. We are unsure what we will do at this point, but we definitely have to know by the end of the year. The military requires you to give 6 months notice. When we find out, we'll be sure to let everyone know! For now, here's my list...
