Travel Wish List

To Bucket List or not to Bucket List

/ Bulldog Travels / 8 Comments

I love the idea but don’t particularly care for the term bucket list.  I don’t know why.  I don’t know if it is because the word bucket is not a very pleasing sounding word or if the association with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman is just weird.  Or perhaps, I feel too young to have a “bucket list” per se.  Either way I was inspired by Lesley Carter’s “Bucketlist Publications” blog pieces hyper linked below and also by a recent Christmas gift to write down some of the items I want to do in my life.  My husband bought me one of those tear off daily calendars based on the book “1000 Places to see before you die.”  So below is the current, as of today, ever changing list of things I would like to do.  (The sooner the better!) I reserve the right to modify this list on a regular basis especially WHEN I hit the lottery!
