Inspired by Stephanie at To Stand Alone, I have revived my 101 in 1001 list! The last one of these I did was in 2010, and it was partway completed but not kept up properly. Now it’s time to try again. I’ve created categories to help me organize my list and find what I’m looking for. The book & hike lists could be much longer but I tried to limit them to keep the list diverse. Here are 101 things I’d like to do in the next 1001 days.
