What's on your Bucket List?

   I found this roaming around on blog spot. Thought it was interesting, the bucket list is not.

My Bucket List

I stole got this idea from someones blog, who got the idea from another blog. It sounded like a fun idea, so, here's the start of my list:

1. Weigh 200lbs or less (target = summer)
2. Quit smoking (already in progress -- if I can go 2 months, I'll consider it done)
3. Visit the UK (where I was born, and where my cousins, aunts, and uncles live)
4. Visit my Dad's grave site in Louisiana.
5. Own a Ford Mustang. :D
6. Visit every province in Canada (6 to go... not including the territories)
7. Cycle 1000kms in one year (this may not seem like much to some people, but considering I tend to cycle once per weekend, in spring & summer only, that's about 80kms per weekend -- double what I usually ride...)

Mine?  Not in any order - just to do before I become incontinent.

1.  Ride a bicycle in Italy along the countryside, with a basket up front, a loaf of bread, a bottle(s) of wine and some new, interesting and incredible cheeses, chocolate and fruit - with my hubby.  Do the same in Greece - really the food may change - have to have my baklava!  OPA

2.  Ride a horse through the surf - hopefully- in a warm climate where the water isn't so sandy from waves breaking.

3.  Visit Lot's and Lot's of Pubs in the motherlands!  Ireland!  Scotland, English pubs would be fun too.

4.  Dive the Barrier Reef - (without being re-routed on my way there!) with one of my sons, or both.

5.  Race a mustang without doing any damage to anyone or anything.

6.  Run on my horse without falling off and breaking anything.

7.  Go out on a deep sea fishing boat.

8.  Make great beer at home.

9.  Have a super garden - keep the pests out so I get some.

10.  Turn my yards into fantastic visual gardens of plants.

11.  Be around healthy and happy to see my children turn into the people they were meant to be - and both happily married.

12.  Get really fluent in Spanish and learn French like I should have -!  Or Greek - or several languages! 


That works for now. 

 Naturally I went on a search for a photo of bicycle riding in Italy.  I found one - but I also found this topic:  Naked Bike Ride to protest... -

I am no longer amazed at finding a photo for everything I am looking for to blog - this was just interesting - it occurs in the UK - hope it is a nice day.
