Summer 2011 Bucket List
As you all know, I make lists. Last summer, when I moved here (around mid July) it was in the 90s in NYC and I was thrilled for all the newness of my future home in Cali. I wasn’t prepared for how cold it would be in the summer (last year in particular), how stressful it would be to look for a new home and a new job, and how hard it was to work on California AND New York time. This summer I want to make it count. I’ve waited my whole life to live in California and I don’t want to miss out on all the beautiful, amazing things in this great state. So this year’s summer bucket list is, for the most part dedicated to the Golden State.
This will be tough given that friends will be visiting for at least two weekends and I’ll be in NYC for two weekends in July.
