And the story continues... Once we arrived in Anaheim we checked into the Residence Inn. This place was pretty cool. Condo style, complimentary wifi, breakfast, nice pool. I like. We dumped our stuff in the room and headed out to meet up with our friends for a late dinner. Remember how I said the place … Continue reading #34 Cali Road Trip (part two)

#33 Dunk Tank
Yes. This happened. I have successfully avoided all forms of large group embarrassment during my years teaching at the middle school. Until this year. Apparently, me blogging 40 adventures before 40 requires me to take on challenges that are WAY out of my comfort zone. Let me share all my excuses first: I like attention. … Continue reading #33 Dunk Tank
#32 Moving Up and Moving On
I know you're wondering why this is an adventure... Or maybe you're wondering why I am behind on my writing... Or maybe both. Or most likely neither. I'm going to tell you anyway, my faithful readers. I'm behind because the end of the school year happened and that is a crazy time all by itself … Continue reading #32 Moving Up and Moving On

#30 Blood Donation Fail
Okay this feels kind of lame. That I'm writing this up and counting it, but let me explain my ways... The story: I want to give back. You know, do something that's not just about me. I had never donated blood before. I don't know why, it just wasn't a thing I ever considered. But … Continue reading #30 Blood Donation Fail

She's proven that almost 40 is not too old to hang from ropes and complete death defying acts. Okay so for the real picture my husband just added... "In the … Continue reading #27 Adventura
#26 San Fran
So we've been gathering Alaska Airlines miles for a few years now. You know making all our monthly purchases on the credit card and then paying it off at the end of each month. It's been eye-opening, let me tell you. If you want to know exactly how much money you spend, you should go … Continue reading #26 San Fran
#25 Building a Greenhouse
Actually building anything... This is one of those spontaneous "wasn't part of my plan originally but deserves a spot in Angie's 40 before 40 Adventure Hall of Fame." Yes I made that up. There's not really an Angie's Adventure Hall of Fame. I'm thinking there should be though. And I also think Bill Nye should … Continue reading #25 Building a Greenhouse
#24 Naked Face
I've been living it up with health and wellness adventures... Hot yoga last week and my first ever facial this week. How have I NOT had one of these bad boys yet? Seriously. I'm not even joking. When I started this list, I must have mentioned never having had a facial. Next thing you know … Continue reading #24 Naked Face
