30 before 30

It's official, I'm in my late twenties. Today I'm 28, in fact. More than a number, this birthday has some significance to me. Not sure if its a bout of nostalgia or my type-A leanings, but I'm preparing to meet the rest of my twenties with gusto and made a list of the top 30 things I'd like to do before I turn 30. Some are simple, some are not; some are whimsical, some are not. But I love lists and hope that this one will lay the framework for some new adventures. Hopefully I'll be able to share some with you here on Pink to Green.
