    I am so excited for summer too! After a very rainy winter and spring I am ready for the SUN! A state park sounds fab. I have been working on the garden and tomorrow will be running in a Memorial day 3 miler to Remember the Fallen. I am not much of a runner but it will be fun to be with friends and support a good cause.
    I will be trying out that 2 min rule today! Such a great idea and it will increase my productivity and I'll make shorter lists. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
