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

  • Ray Charles
  • Luther VanDross

  • 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:
