The John Muir Trail is so beautiful. I just hiked them last weekend for the first time and it was amazing. The huge trees and the history of the place is so interesting. The air and sky are beautiful and it makes you really feel like God is there.
Definitely make sure you can check this one off your list soon. It's too wonderful not to see.

I love your list. That is so cool! And that is great that you are making progress on it! I think if I had a list it would just sit there. Because that is what happens with all the to-do lists I make of stuff to get done around the house. They just sit around... Your list is awesome.

Hey Heather,
I have gone to your hubby's blog many times. I started looking at it to see your adoption videos. I am extremely passionate about international adoption and your videos are incred! Thought I would mention the site "43 things" to you! It's a site where you can put your list just like you've done here. You can put entries, people can cheer it, and you can seat goals for when to do them! Check it out!

I agree. I think I have a girl-crush too. Man, I thought I admired you before for just being a great cook and awesome mom. Now I have a few more reasons to. I could never post my list. It's lame and not as cool =0)
