Happy Friday!! Happy Summer!! June Friday Favorites is all about Summer! Summer is my favorite season out of the 4. I do not like being cold. I will rarely ever complain about it being too hot, and there is so much to do! I’m so excited for this summer. This spring was a little rough mentally for me and I don’t really know why and I can’t really explain it. But I just kept to myself. I didn’t go out or do anything that I loved! Which in return spiraled me back into an unhealthy headspace.
I’m so ready for summer! I have so many trips and things that I want to do which is why this months Friday 4 Favorites is about my summer bucket list. So, if you are new here. On the 4th Friday of every month, I share 4 of my favorite things based on a theme or just things that I am loving. Feel free to join along with me.
Upper Peninsula
I am so excited for this trip. This trip has been 2 years in the making. It’s my first solo trip that I will be gone more than a weekend. I have so much planned I really hope that I can get it all accomplished. The nice thing is I can always go back. I am going to do a lot of hiking, reading, and taking pictures. I can’t wait to see what happens during this trip because weekend trips recenter me and this trip is 10+ days!
Hiking Adventures
I signed up for a few hiking adventures this summer. We have a local park that is doing a few walking challenges that started in June. My goal is to complete them all. I have also signed up for some from My Nature Adventure.
Wildlife Prairie Park has a 4 and 5 mile challenge. At the entry gate, you’ll need to get the brochure because each have 9 pictures you have to take. Plus, this counts for other challenges as well. The bobcat 75 is walking 75 miles from June 1 to August 31st.
Start 75 Challenge
I started in the middle of the month, but for the next year I am going to do 75 Soft twice, 75 Medium twice, and 75 Hard once. I will say I WILL NOT be following the exact rules from the creator but it’s similar. I am tailoring it towards me and what I want to accomplish. Which overall is order in my life. I feel like things are so out of control right now. I don’t like it and I hoping that this will be the lifestyle switch I need to work towards becoming the person I want to be.
Launch something New
I have a few ideas on what this might be, but I’m not ready to share with everyone. I know total bummer. This has been something on my mind and heart for a really long time. I’m still unsure of how it will all work but I’m giving it time. It might be one thing or it might be 2. Just depends but by the end of the summer all the details will be out.
