*Gaahhh* I can't believe that SEVEN MONTHS have Passed!!

Wow.  When I get going, I go, Go, GO!

I have been away at a military school since January 24th of this year.  I just got caught up in the business of being busy, there! So much so, that I have neglected to work on my Top 20.  Well, that's not entirely true.  Explanations below:

I attempted to schedule one of those photography classes, but  didn't make the departure time...

I started guitar lessons from a friend there and learned six chords, even (A, Am, C, D, E, G)!


I also organized for our class to complete the 200 mile American Odyssey relay - this year I did 17 miles!


So, I guess that's not too bad for a kid who wasn't trying to make it happen, eh?



HOWEVER, in the short time that I've been back, I've already started on more than a few items:

#1 - I've scheduled a photography session for the last weekend in July (yay)! 
#10 - Go sky diving.  Also happening the last weekend in July!  Although, after talking to my buddy who IS certified, it may or may not be feasible for me to get certified...so I may amend that for me to complete a Solo SkyDive :) 
#13 - I've scheduled my first official guitar lessons...next week and the week after.  Once I try out this instructor and get my new work schedule - I will continue, super excited about that!


That's it for now, but I'd really like some thoughts on the following from YOU:

#8 - Climb a Huge Montain Range (recommendations?)
#11- Complete 10 Endurance Events (what classifies as an endurance event?)
