My (Incomplete) Life List
Several years ago, I started a life list - just a list of things that I would like to do. Some are silly. Some are not likely to ever happen but it is fun to dream. Do you have a list?

Your list is quite ambitious! Mine consists of things such as: make it through the week, month, year, etc.; don't forget to pick up wine on the way home; brush the dog....you get the idea.
I am definitely up for spending New Year's in Times Square. Now, if I can just convince The Surveyor!
I LOVE your list. It is so adventurous and I have not seen or done any of them yet. Well, the white water rafting we did do, but it was very mild, fun but mild.
I don't have a list per se', but in my mind I do and it looks just like BHE. Just the basics.
You have inspired me though. I am going to put making a list on my list of things to do!!!
Happy healing.

Big Hair - Vol Fan has absolutely no desire to do Times Square. Maybe we should have a blog convention there on New Year's?!?
Suz - I have a daily list too but it mostly consists of 'Dear God! You mean I have to cook. Again!' and 'But I just dusted last month!'......
Impressive list! I've done some of the stuff out west, but it would be a miracle if I ever had the opportunity to see the pyramids.
Grandma J - I can't even imagine how impressive the pyramids are live and up close!
I've only done like three of those things, and two of them involved the Pacific Ocean.
Maybe you could just sell everything you own and buy a little camper. You could live in the camper and use the money you made from selling everything to go on trips in your little, mobile home.
MJ - I'm thinking that sounds awesome!!
Neat list! I don't really do lists - I forget to bring the shopping list with me, so you can imagine that life lists would be forgotten too. I do, however, want to ride the Hogwarts Express before I die.
#20 on your list - The Colliseum, the Amalfi Coast, and a Tuscan harvest? I'm guessing on the 2nd two, but have done all of those and you should definitely go there. If you know the language, even better. I kept speaking a combo of Spanish and French and they would just start speaking English to me after that. It's a great place!
This is a terrific list. Reading it makes me want to go find you in person so we can do some of them together!
