    Wave Bucket List

    I don't remember seeing a bucket list thread so I though I'd start one. Soooo what's on your bucket list?

    Already did them all! Traveled all over the world, and met my soul mate, although come to think of it, I never did a zip line. Hmmm.

    Before I die...I want just one latent hyperope with 20/50 uncorredted DVA to sit in my chair and say, "I admit I need glasses for driving and TV. Lay it on me."

    Then I can die in peace. Just this one simple request.

    The more I think about it, the more I want to make a visit to Ayer's rock in Australia (Uluru National Park), and also to Temuka NZ to visit some friends that I haven't seen in 20 years. And....the zip line.

    I would love to volunteer in other countries providing glasses or other health related services, definitely want to paraglide...although it may take a minute to talk myself into running off the side of a mountain, and I want a tattoo :)...this one will be accomplished first!

    I drove from the east to west coast last year. We stopped in South Dakota to see the badlands, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and Deadwood. Absolutely worth checking out!

    Hmmm, did the zip line, traveling, no desire to voluntarily jump out of a plane, would like to own a 68 Vette, maybe play my music in front of a stadium crowd.

    This past November and December we drove our motor home from Gold Hill, Oregon to Manchester, New Hampshire then down the east coast to Quantico, Virginia and Key West and Naples, Florida. We then hit Pensacola, Florida and along the Redneck River to Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Continuing west we hit Tubac, Arizona and San Diego, California. We followed the Pacific Coast Highway north and some 11,250 miles later we finally arrived back home just a few days before Christmas. The trip was not on my bucket list as we had done this before, in fact, I spent over a year on the road when I first retired in 2002. On this last trip we did not hit any of the “scenic wonders” as we had “been there– done that” before. We visited with friends and family.

    I do not have a bucket list but if I did I would definitely put the following on it:

    I will never circumnavigate the Continental UnitedStates in a motor home again.

    LOL, I think when I finally do it, it's going to be a "one hit wonder" kind-of trip.
