MY BUCKET LIST

I watched a movie the other night call "The Bucket List". If you have not seen it, do so. It is funny, enlightening and heart warming. Then my Daughter (Cindy) came over and she had also seen it. She said that she was going to put her bucket list on her blog which gave me the idea. So, I am plagiarizing on my daughters idea. Actually, I had not given any thought to a bucket list so this may take awhile. Since I am almost 70 years old, my bucket is about empty so I think that it would be a good idea to travel back in time and put down some of the things that would have been in my bucket that I accomplished. They will not be in any specific order so bear with me on this one as it will take some consideration. I will be adding to the list as I remember them.
