What is the single most important thing you will do in 2025 to enjoy your time outside more?

trying to be healthier, down 25 lbs since Halloween doing keto. trying to stick with it long term and only cheat on vacations. I'm rly bad about processed food and sugar and its the only way I can say no to crap. at 38 I'm worried about that catching up with me. getting on the scale everyday is satisfying..

go camping more with family. got a bigger tent and camp grill and stove and other stuff to keep my wife and kid comfy/happy. already did one trip last month on haleakala and got another lined up in march.

trying to surf more with my 4yo. he stood up for the first time the other day (with me paddling on the back of the long board). he got up 6 times and was stoked. were about to go out in a couple more hours at sunset.

Also bought him a cricket for his bday in april and plan on getting him going at the range this year.

Just overall trying to enjoys the outdoors more with my family

Drop 15 lbs and try to keep it off this time. Basically eat cleaner and workout a bit more.

ROAD TRIP !!!!!!

And oh yeah…. Find, whoo, and convince the perfect (for me) woman that I’m ALL THAT!

As I recover from a serious, unexpected health crisis, my priorities are clearly realigned. A deeper relationship with Him, followed closely by more time with my wife and kids and less time chasing a dollar. If it’s outdoors and hunting, great, but memories with my family will win out. Leaving this Earth at 46 with kids in high school nearly happened…..

I'm pretty fit (5-10 180#, muscular), but not the best cardio shape I could be in, working on that.

I've got 2 bow hunts planned, first year bow hunting. I enjoyed pushing myself and trying new stuff. Both are also for new species. Bear and sheep.

Getting ahead at work will make my ‘25 seasons more enjoyable. I’m blessed to have a lot of flexibility in theory (unlimited PTO! ), and hunting options in CO and WY that “should” allow me to hunt and work in a happy mix for multiple tags. I’ve tried it the past few years, but combined with 3 kids 5 and under, it’s been controlled chaos at best. I think I’ve broken down 5 or 6 animals in the past three years with earbuds during work calls; only one slip up where corporate saw a dead deer . Now that the kids are a bit older, I think I can clear some real time on my schedule to enjoy my hunts vs just “squeezing them in” and constantly feeling like I’m rushing.

Take the motorhome to the Boston area, then tour Boston with my 2 adult sons and their wives for a week or so in mid September. Lots of history there. Riding my Tennessee Walker horse a bit more is high on the list too.

Many days fishing with the family. Whether it's on the pontoon or setting up a day camp on the bank, that's where my wife and kids are happy. We already have 4 nights booked at a camp a Jackson lake in Grand Teton in the first half of June.

I also want to take my wife on a backcountry elk hunt/camp.
