I'm doing 35 things
Hello, Ethan!
I want to do the same thing! I wrote up a story for the Halloween show, when they asked for entries, but the dang answering machine cut me off after about 90 seconds. What a drag! I hope you make it! Good luck!

It was awesome! Just amazing! I put as one of my goals to write for the Daily Show. A dream? Perhaps. Sigh.
I went on a 2 week kayaking trip with National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) in Alaska. Can’t get too close, because the glaciers could calve and you’d flip over, but it was awesome, that and icebergs. Oh, my, God is good. : )
