I’m definitely working on it… I’m not sure that there are 100 books on my list yet, but at least I started making a list! working in a bookstore definitely helps – I get to read and get paid for it!

my brother and I have been talking about doing this since the 3rd movie came out, but we haven’t made time for it yet. sad! it’s still one of our goals.
but my brother and I hiked up Paintbrush Canyon in the Grand Tetons, and then down Cascade Canyon on the other side. We ended up at 10,700 ft at the pass, and that’s the highest we’ve ever climbed/hiked. It’s a 20 mile hike, and we weren’t well prepared, so by the time we got down, we were dragging our feet and whining to each other about how much farther we still had to go. I’m pretty sure my body went into shock that night – which is sad, because I was only 20! Still, it was the highlight of our road trip to the Tetons. It made us look up at the Grand Teton from the top of our pass and think “hey, the top of the Grand is only 4000 ft above us—we could totally climb that!”
