Bucket List

Do you have a bucket list?

I had never even heard of the concept of a bucket list until about ten years ago! lol I remember someone using the term and me going What is that, a bucket list? 😄

Since then, I've developed quite a list of things I'd like to accomplish in this life time. Some things that can and will never happen and some that just might! If I share my list with you, will you share your list with me?

Cool. Here's some of mine.

Let's begin with concerts and performances that I would really love to see some how, some way, in no particular order.

David Garret
German Violinist

Ray Charles
Luther VanDross
Anita Baker
Michael Jackson
Led Zepplin
The Beatles
Super Junior
Paul McCartney
David Garrett
Whitney Houston
Bo Burnham
Les Mis on Broadway
Tim Minchin
Chris Hitchins
Penn and Teller

And then there are the places! So many places, real, imagined, and past that I, sometimes, long to see, to experience, to be moved by, filled by...you get it. Here's my list and, before I even write it down, I'll bet most of it is more of a spiritual nature than an excitement thing. Beauty. Sublimity. Nature. Force...
Here we go, again, in no particular order:

Predjama Castle,
Slovenia

Lake Bled, Slovenia
Stonehenge
The Library at Alexandria
Castle Island, Dublin
The caves at Lascaux

Lots of Italy
Surat, India
The Harrapa Ruins
Fingal's Cave
Istanbul
Athens
Scotland
Cappadocia, Turkey
Sun Temple in Modhera, India

And, finally, things I want to do or experience, some completely impossible, but you get the idea:

Cure cancer, the common cold, all mental illness...
Spend millions and millions on important causes

Gosh, I now realize that this blog post could go on and on!
But I think I'll end it with a list of bucket list things that I've accomplished in this life time, much as I could never have seen it happening when I was young.
