50 New Things @ 50

My challenge to do 50 new things at age 50.

A friend on Facebook challenged himself to do one new thing for ever year of his life during that span between birthdays. I loved that idea. So here on my 50th birthday, I am accepting the challenge to do 50 new things before my next birthday.
