Busy, Busy

Yikes, today I am busy, busy, busy. Jason isn't moving in until tomorrow, so I have decided to just move out everything in one go, before we had an overload of stuff in this apt. I am keeping my 100 Thing Challenge going, and I have already realized that I forgot a ton of items and have to definitely adjust my list.

I have to admit though, I thought it was going to be painful to get rid of many of my possessions, but it has actually become extremely satisfying. Many things I am giving to my parents to sell at their garage sale, other items are going to friends and family who I think might like/need them. I have to say it feels wonderful to be less tethered by material things, although I might just be sick of packing box after box.

I'll have the new 100 Things list up soon - once I figure out what I can narrow down. Also, I am dead set on my hitchhiking adventure happening within the week.

Meanwhile, here are some pics from another trip to the peninsula, this time with my friend Mara. We just aimlessly wandered a bit, and then headed out to Gull Point since it is closed from April 1 - Nov 1 to provide sanctuary for breeding shore birds.

Cute house boats.

The North Pierhead Lighthouse

Mara catching me at my dorkiest - but it was great, there were scaups, buffleheads, redheads, and red-breasted and hooded mergansers. Sweet.
