Bucket List

The Bucket List with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson was on TV the other day and it got me thinking about what all I wanted to accomplish in my lifetime. Some of these things, I realize, are farfetched and unrealistic… but that doesn’t mean that they can’t be an item on my list.

 

Places to visit:

1.       The Parthenon in the summer

2.       Paris in the winter

3.       An ancient city

4.       Maine in the winter

5.       A beach with white sands and clear blue waters

6.       The Grand Canyon

7.       An archaeological dig site

9.       London

10.   Switzerland

11.   Great Wall of China

12.   New York City

13.   Hawaii (when it’s not monsoon season…)

Things to do:

1.       Swim with dolphins

2.       Visit a tiger rescue

3.       Open my own animal shelter (Sorry Brian….)

4.       Ski (not down a big mountain… but maybe a little hill)

5.       Raise a child from baby to adult (doesn’t matter whether it is biologically mine or not)

6.       Take a cross country road trip

7.       Make a difference in a life other than my own

8.       Take an African safari

9.       Go on a cruise

12.   See a concert in Madison Square Garden

13.   Put my kids through college

So what if I have high aspirations? It’s better than none at all!
