Ten on Tuesday

1. What two cities should be moved closer together?

Wow, I bet no one is going to be able to guess this one.....;)

That is totally easy! Tucson, AZ and Battle Lake, MN should be a nice 10-15 minute drive from each other! That is the big meeting place for my family during the summer, and now for many holidays! That would be a dream come true if we just pushed those cities together! ;)
2. What was the first plane ride you took?
Well, 1st EVER was a little "puddle jumper" of a plane in 5th grade. It was for a school field trip! How neat, now thinking about to that!
My 1st real plane ride was to Chicago when I was in 6th grade! I will never forget it. People probably thought it was the 1st time my parents let me off a farm or something. I kept the "Northwest" glass and peanut package as "souvenirs". What a weird kid I was!
3. What continent would you most like to visit?
Definitely Europe. There is so much I would love to see there! Scottland, Germany, Italy, France, Norway, Spain....ah. :) Some day!!!!!
4. What’s your favorite place to window-shop?
This isn't actual "window-shopping"....but it's the same idea - LongRealty.com. I love going on the website on my downtime and looking at houses to figure out what I want!
I also like window shopping at Crate & Barrel.
5. What’s the least fun you’ve ever had at a place specifically tailored for fun?
The only thing that really sticks out for me is my high school Homecoming Cornation, Senior year. I was a homecoming candidate.
I will never forget preparing to be "escorted in". I was standing in the hallway, sobbing my eyes out. Thank God my Mom came to the rescue, was wiping the tears from my eyes reminding me that I will be graduated from that place in no time!
It is incredible how mean and caddy girls can be! Now looking back, it's silly how worked up I got over things - but they sure affect young women at that age!!
6. You’re stuck on an island with plenty of food, a companion, and a relatively stress-free lifestyle. What do you say when the rescue ship comes?
"Wrong Island! Hope you find those stranded folks!!!" ;)
7. Which day of the week do you look forward to most?
It's a tie between Friday & Saturday. Friday is my "Zen Day" - I always include a good workout, full house cleaning, outdoor time, and a fun evening with Ryan (usually involving cooking a fun meal or going out for sushi). However, I live for Saturdays! :-) Almost always complete freedom.
8. What’s your favorite place to enjoy the great outdoors?
Battle Lake, MN or Seven Falls/Sabino Canyon here in Tucson. I love the lake, water sports, family, and just serenity of the lakes.

And I love hiking Sabino Canyon - you cross 7 water falls on the way up the mountain. At the very top, there are natural pools of fresh water -- such a reward!!
9. What’s on your “to do” list this summer?
-Recieve my BSN on August 20, 2010!!! (Yay)
-Get hired on as an RN at my sponsoring hospital in the perfect unit for me!
-Go camping in the White Mountains
-Swim 2 miles (The most I've done is 1 mile. Summer is my "off-season" for running in AZ)
-Have successful tomato plants! And get a mini-herb garden!
-Learn to Surf. Long board.- hopefully on a weekend getaway for our 1st Anniversary to San Diego again!!!
10. Which natural disaster freaks you out the most?
-Hurricanes. Not in Tucson though. We don't really have natural disaster in Tucson. But hurricanes are terrifying. Do fires count? They aren't always "natural".... I think a fire is just terrifying.
