I actually saw the idea on <a href="http://www.geezlouiseblog.com/p/101-things-in-1001-days.html">this blog</a> and fell in love. The idea comes from <a href="http://dayzeroproject.com/">dayzero</a>, a community of challenge based individuals. Ben and I tend to stay at home and enjoy our Netflix nights. Hopefully this challenge will push us to do a bit more in the next 1001 days and even more after that.<br />
