Really great stuff -- and mine match at least a few of yours! I'd add Iceland to places I want to travel. You got all the writing, publishing and marathon and RV stuff. lol
I'd like to jump from a plane. :)

Can't jump from a plane -- MOTION SICKNESS!! UGH!
I would maybe add something more adventurous like backpacking or mountain climbing.
Also, a visit to a National Park. Haven't done that since I was little!

Thanks! Remodeling is always needed, hey? What other crazy, adventurous or more down to earth ideas can you come up with?

SOME ON YOUR LIST, I have done, but here one for you to try,its very easy to do,and that is fly to any country you love to go and write about the things you loved,to do. and learn all you can in the country that you visit.

That would be fun, and I forgot to put "writing in a foreign country" on this list. You know, it is a possibility. My son will be grown and my husband could either stay here or come with if he's still around. Who knows for sure. But, it's exciting to know I could write next to a canal or something beautiful and wonderful. Some sort of landmark! YES!
