    I've seen a lot of pileated woodpeckers lately and have also seen my neighbors out and about more in the nicer weather and been able to check in with them. This weekend, Jim was out grading his section of the road and we had a nice chat about the best spots in our neighborhood to find turkeys. I have found shortcuts I didn't know about on snowmobile trails and other two tracks- I can walk to work in 40 minutes if I take the snowmobile trail.

    I'm excited for the challenge. Some of the challenges I chose are things I already do but maybe don't THINK about- like walking at least 60 minutes a day. But others will be a new experience, like eating 3 meatless meals a day. I'm excited most of all for the new experiences!
