Let's knock put #1, #11, and #19 this March (best ice fishing time). Quick snowgo ride up to Oscarville for a dinner and movie... then continue on the river in the lat evening to the prime manaqing spot past Napakiak. You can overnight back here and then return to Bethel with only 26 more things to do!
You got some pretty major goals on that list. Good luck chica!
You did a great job accomplishing all that you did in one year. Only 6 items and #4 is in progress. I voted that you should do something different with the 5"unaccomplished" goals...
I think you might view them somewhat differently than you are. #8 for example... while Alaska isn't a different Country consider the unique experience that it is. I live on the Central Coast of California and frankly, your life in Alaska seems like a completely different WORLD to me! Keep 8 on your list... you are only 30 and have many years to travel to another country.
The other thing I wanted to comment on was #18... Fall in Love... That should be on your list for the rest of your life. Everyday you are alive it should be something that you are open to. Love comes and goes like the tide... we cannot keep it from coming or going. It is best left to its own devices, to evolve, to materialize on its own.
Best of everything to you.
