go on a real vacation once a year

Two vacations, and another coming up! 17 months ago

I’ve already done this for 2008. In April I drove to Alabama to celebrate a friend’s 50th birthday and stayed for a couple of days. In June, I went to a Jeopardy audition in Cleveland and took a couple of extra days to sightsee and hike. I have another trip scheduled for June, for my aunt and uncle’s 50th anniversary celebration.

go hiking (read all 3 entries…)

Cuyahoga Valley National Park June 2008 17 months ago

I spent a couple of days day-hiking here. I probably got in 20 miles total. I did one hike recommended in “Fifty Hikes in Ohio.” FWIW, the author overestimates distance by 2 miles and hiking time by 2 hours.

pay off my credit card debt (read all 7 entries…)

Done, except... 17 months ago

I just came back from a vacation. Hotel and rental car went on my lowest-interest card. I should be able to pay it off all at once, or failing that, in two or three payments.
