Your bucket list!

Started to update my Bucket List a little while ago and wanted to share it with everyone here as well as see what others have put down! Perhaps for some inspiration.

I find it very interesting what people have on their bucket list because it can tell a great deal about a person and what they hold value in.

For those that don't know, a Bucket list is a list of things you want to do and/or accomplish before you die.

What most people here don't know about me is that I am probably the most ambitious and outgoing person you could ever meet. I realize that sounds very arrogant, but I have yet to find anyone that seemed to be the way I am so far (although I'm trying desperately to find that person). A lot of things on my bucket list I've already completed, but there are a few that will require years (as in over 20 years to accomplish). Another aspect of my personality that very few on here have witnessed is my charging lust for an adrenaline thrill. Weather that be through bungee jumping, Alpine Touring, Survival camping, Capturing and studying of venomous and other extremely dangerous animals (usually reptiles), rock climbing, white water rafter. THE WORKS! love it all and need it!

Here's what I have so far, and it is far from done!

There are a few things on there (such as go into space) that seem way out there and unable to do, but within our life time (most of ours at least) we will have the luxury of doing something like that at a relatively low price (currently shuttle tickets are $200,000, but that is going to change and it's going to change fast).


So, what do you think? and what's your bucket list like?!?!
 
Interesting list there Evo...

Here's mine. Things highlighted in blue are already checked off the list.

Go spelunking.
Spend at least two weeks on safari in Kenya.
Hike to the top of Vernal Falls, Yosemite.
Hike to the top of Half Dome, Yosemite.
Watch Old Faithful erupt.
Pet a tiger. (My hubby got to do this!)
Spend at least two weeks on the Amazon River.
Go on a foreign mission trip.
Pull a calf.
Get married.
Have kids.

Write a book.
Visit all 50 states. (17 down, 33 to go!)
Visit at least one nation in each continent. (So far I can scratch Europe, Mexico and Canada -not fair to count US for North America- off the list.)
Pray with someone as they repent and become a Christian.
Have High Tea in a truly posh setting.
Soak in a natural hot springs pool in the wild.

Be at the birth of a least one grandchild. (Since I missed the births of my kids, I'm hoping my daughter or future d-i-l will let me be there.)
See a full spectrum rainbow, the entire oval instead of just part of it. (Truly awesome!)
Ride an elephant.
See my children be baptized.
Paint a picture. (Good one I mean.)
Act in a play before a paying audience.
Make my own working model of K9 (Dr. Who's dog)
Watch the sunset over the Pacific.
Watch the sunrise over the Atlantic.
See Christ return.

:DI think we Christians have a slight advantage over you atheists on the whole "Bucket list" concept, Evo. Since I believe I'll be living eternally on a newly created Earth, I might get around to doing some of these things after the resurrection! :lol
 
done since i was kid

drive a semi or related equipment
operate a garbage truck
seen canada, ireland
seen mt.st helens(saw from afar)
obtained black belt in karate,and aikido
i will have to think of more.
 
I have only one thing on my list.
San Fermín festival in Pamplona. The running of the bulls.

I hear I better hurry. I want to run, so I don't need to get any older before I do this, and they are starting to shut bull fighting down in some parts of the country.
