This is Part 3 of my 2014 Year in Review.
Travel
With most of my time and energy for the year being tied up in job hunting, job getting, job starting, putting things into storage, moving, house hunting, and moving again – I didn’t travel much this year and ended up not going on my trip to St. John, USVI. USVI got the axe mainly because I wanted to save money for my new home, and because the trip had originally been scheduled for my first week at Wayin.
So instead I focused on experiencing more of downtown Denver. I tried out many new restaurants and bars. I went to the “Money Museum” at the Federal National Reserve which FYI, is not a museum and instead more of a small hallway with some facts about money. (I actually asked for a map of the Museum thinking it was much larger…to be laughed at the woman at the front desk as she pointed to the small area.) I went to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science and the Denver Zoo more often. I even did a huge trivia night at Punch Bowl Social. I knew Boulder really well, and so its been exciting getting to know Denver better.
But I did end up going on two small trips in 2014. The first was back to San Diego, CA for a family trip over 4th of July. I’ve been there so many times that San Diego doesn’t seem that adventurous to me but it was nice to get away and relax. My other trip was a work trip to Boston, MA in October. I didn’t get much free time on this trip, but the first afternoon was able to see the Old North Church, and a few graveyards (I love Halloween things!) I also was able to do a night haunted trolley tour through multiple graveyards at night and had much fun jumping into piles of fall leaves.
In Closing
While a lot of other things happened in 2014 this year in review sums up the major changes really well. This past year for LiliOnTheLoose has been more “On Life” than “On Getting Lost” but now that things has settled down who knows what 2015 will bring?
