My cousin and I are planning on traveling to Arizona for our 4 day weekend holiday - Pioneer Day. My cousin has never been to Arizona and is very excited to go. We have been talking about different things that we could do during the weekend. Lately she has been giving me a countdown in e-mails on how many days are left until we leave. This has gotten me to be more excited about this trip. Originally I had planned to just go down and help my parent's clean out their garage, but now I'm thinking this may actually be a "summer vacation." (In addition to cleaning out the garage) I decided to do my own countdown of the trip. I took toothpicks and taped them to my refrigerator. Each toothpick represents a day until we leave. So I just need to pull a toothpick each day. I'll see how well this countdown does. At least it's not as big as a paper chain.

You could stick the toothpicks into a cup too. That is what I did as a countdown on my mission.
