- Dive the sunken nuclear fleet in Bikini Atoll - Be able to and actually nicely play Claire de Lune - Dive in between tectonic plates in Iceland - Drive 200 mph on the Autobahn - Drive the Nurburgring - Visit FNH in Belgium and see Browning’s Office - Visit HK in Germany - Visit Rolex in Bienne and Plan-les-Ouate - Play catch with my daughter - Teach my daughter to shoot - Finish up my visits to every state in the US “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” | |||

I need to go fly a glider. Maybe a lesson in a helicopter Live long enough to see my son retire "Someday I hope to be half the man my bird-dog thinks I am." looking forward to 4 years of TRUMP! | |||

I have been trying to check these boxes as I am able but here are a few off the top of my head. 1. Visit/fly fish Alaska (my only state left to visit) 2. See the northern lights 3. Travel the Grand Canyon via Colorado River and camp my way through. 4. Hike the Sierra Nevadas to catch a Californian Golden Trout _________________________ "An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile - hoping it will eat him last” - Winston Churchil | |||

Prepared for the Worst, Providing the Best |
A couple of us have similar goals, lol. Mine, in no particular order: 1. Camping overnight in the Dry Tortugas (been wanting to do this for years). 2. I need to get to Hawaii...it's the only one of the 50 states I haven't been to, and I want to go aboard the USS Missouri, see the USS Arizona, and look into a live volcano. 3. Climb Cloud Peak in the Wyoming Bighorns (I've been close to doing this 4 or 5 times in the past but never made it up due to weather, snow cover, lack of time, etc. We have plans to try again this summer) 4. Back seat ride in Blue Angels #7. Probably never happen, but I can dream. 5. Visit all 7 Continents (still missing Africa, Asia, Australia, and Antarctica). 6. Hike the Grand Canyon rim to rim. There's probably a few others, but those are the big ones. I gotten to accomplish some good ones in the last few years as well, like going to Alaska with my son. It's fun to have a list, but it's even more fun to actually do them. | |||

Sky Dive Take both long motorcycle and car trips. (staying in US, maybe eastern Canadian coast.) Get back to visit Italy and Greece again. Sail from the Caribbean to Newfoundland in a small to medium size sailboat. See my best friend from my youth that I haven't spoken to in 25 years. | |||

1) Fly on a private jet round trip and have a blast for several days wherever it takes me. 2) Learn the truth about all the big mysteries that bug the hell out of me not knowing. Everything else I've either done, at least to some degree, or don't really care about. | |||

Didn't think I had anything to add, largely because I'm SO over traveling, but... I sure would like to take a ride in an open cockpit biplane. They used to have one doing lighthouse tours out of Bar Harbor but haven't seen it in a couple of years. Tour comes right over my house as there's a lighthouse I can just see out the kitchen window when the leaves are off. Daughter treated me to a ride in a Cessna-type airplane a couple of years ago. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

Attend mass or at least receive the Eucharist at La Chiesa della Madonna del Lago (Little Church of Miracles) in Scanno, Italy. https://enchantingitaly.blogsp...lake-scanno.html?m=1  Take a Pilgrimage to The Shrine of our Lady of Medjugorje, in Bosnia. I have been to both of these places when I was just a young fella gallivanting around Europe with his buddies. Now that I have become a Catholic I’d like to return to the places that were possibly the beginning of my journey to become Catholic before I even knew I was on that journey. Finish my 92 Mustang so our friend ScreamingCockatoo can paint it!  Buy a 1993, 03/04, or 96-98 Cobra. The 96-98s are likely the most attainable for me and will likely slap a ProCharger on it. ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad. If we got each other, and that's all we have. I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand. You should know I'll be there for you! | |||

Clean the garage. Sell off some bass gear. Sell off some other music gear. Sell off some tools. Get my leg strength back. "We're all travelers in this world. From the sweet grass to the packing house. Birth 'til death. We travel between the eternities." | |||

| Ignored facts still exist |
When you get to Hawaii, that technically counts as the continent known as Australia or more properly Oceania. I still need Africa, South America and Antarctica. Thinking of combining SA and Ant together in a cruise. Probably in about 5 years from now when I have more time in a December, which is the optimal month. | |||

Not really from Vienna |
Come up with a bucket list | |||
