Grad school is done.
Commissioning is done.
Buying a home is done.
Yet there are so many other experiences in life out there to enjoy. Inspired from a friend, I decided to compile a 30 before 30 list. The rules of the said list are: either complete activity by 30th birthday or have plans to complete activity by 30th birthday and make sure to chronicle the events.
Therefore, here are the 30 things that I plan to do before I turn 30:
1. Run a 10K
2. Go on a zip-line
3. Do the Superman Bungee flying thing (aka Superflyer Extreme)
4. Fly a plane
5. Eat a meal from vegetables from my yard
6. Take a cooking class
7. Take dance lessons
8. Publish an article (not online)
9. Go on a silent retreat
10. White-water raft the Gauley River
11. Blog my experiences
12. Read the Lord of the Rings series
13. Do a voice and violin recital
14. Build a piece of furniture
15. Hang glide or parasail or skydive
16. Go on a hot air balloon ride
17. Buy (and wear) a pair of brightly colored shoes
18. Hike part of the Appalachian Trail
19. Work on learning Spanish
20. Visit a new state
21. Donate my hair
22. Get a dog
23. Plan and do a family mission trip
24. Visit a new country
25. Host a dinner party
26. Eat for one whole week from farmers' market food
27. Tutor one afternoon a week
28. Find a Spiritual Director
29. Crash a wedding
30. Plan a vacation with friends
So there it is! 30 things to do before June 9th. Guess I better get to planning.

Sara,
You've got quite a list! Here is a link that will help you find a Spiritual Director. I did a search in Winchester already, and there is a woman Lutheran pastor there who does spiritual direction. You may need to change the search to a different town nearby to expand your search results.

Also, can the brightly colored shoes be given to you as a gift? If so, I'd be happy to be on the look out for the perfect pair. What's your shoe size?
THIS IS REALLY EXCITING!!
so, in efforts to help with #16, #20, and #30, here's a plan:
new mexico has a hot air balloon festival every year in october. i plan to be there this year because HELLO! IT'S A HOT AIR BALLOON FESTIVAL!

Good luck, girlfriend!
I'll go on a silent retreat with you. In fact, come here and be silent. That way it won't cost anything :)
Camp Lake Stephens has a zip line... it ends in the lake. Come visit Mississippi! I'm excited to hear more about the things you check off of your list!
