Here are my goals for my trip to Alaska:

1.  Take lots of pictures.

2.  Post said pictures on Facebook or blog when I get back.

3.  Spend time with people I love.

4.  Do not sleep in past 9:30am so that I have a better chance at accomplishing #3.

5.  Feel free to stay up until the sun sets (around 2am) or later if it means accomplishing #3.

6.  Drive to the places that I always think of when I think of being at home.

7. Take pictures when I arrive at #6’s destinations.

8.  Be patient with the parents.

9.  Spend minimal time on the internet and avoid watching pointless tv (watching a movie with family isn’t necessarily pointless).

10.  Spend lots of time outside.

I’ll let you know how I do.  Or better yet, you”ll hopefully get to see pictures and then you can judge how well I did.
