24 in 24 -- Rolling Over

Wasn't on the list, but I did walk through the City of Berkeley (IL not CA) holiday lights display.  NTB.

Below are the 24 in 24 tasks that I really meant to do, really wanted to do, and just didn't.  They will be rolling over to my 25 in 25 list -- coming soon to a neglected blog near you.

What do the items below have in common?  They all would require me to leave my house. 

2.  Walk the Steps at Swallow Cliff.  I heard about these when my son was preparing to go on a scout high adventure trip at Rocky Mountain National Park.  Some scouts walk these steps with their packs on for practice.  My son never did, but I have been meaning to visit the Steps at Swallow Cliff for over five years now.  

Rolling it over.

5.  Take my family to a Brazilian steakhouse.  I mostly just want to watch my boys react to endless offerings of animal protein.  

Hmmmm, I am not sure I actually want to roll this one over to 2025.  

6.  Take a walk at Lake Ellyn.  Twenty minutes away, and I've never seen this lake.  Actually, had never even heard of it until a dogsitter told me how much my dog enjoyed walking there.  My dog is not an enthusiastic walker so I gotta check this place out.

Rolling it over.

21.  Visit the Art Institute of Chicago.  I have not been there since my freshman year of college.  What?!  I took a screenshot of the "free days" as motivation, but it wouldn't kill me to pay either.  I'd love to get one of my kids to go with me, but it may be a tough sell.  

I became a member so I really, really have to get there.  

22.  Visit the National Museum and Shrine of St. Therese in Darien.   There is daily mass there at 11:30 am.  I can easily fit this into a weekday.

 Rolling it over.
