  2. Dana Says:

    You are way more adventurous than I!

  3. Tink Says:

    I’m with you on the first 10, 11 would be to meet Robbie Williams and 12/13: I have no kids. Great list!
    My TT lists 13 things I can’t (or don’t want to…) live without.

  4. amy Says:

    Im sure you can scratch number 13 off..Hope you get to do the rest

  5. Christine Says:

    OK! You can check off #13!

    The Grand Canyon is breathtaking. I’ve done #1,and 3. I’d like to do #8 and #9 next.

    My T13 list will be up soon.

  6. Friday's Child Says:

    Wow! those are great wishes. I had a similar post a long time ago. It was about what I had my loved ones do when I leave this mortal shore.
    My T13 is up too.

  7. Shannon Says:

    They all sound great! Would you want to go on the new Grand Canyon Skywalk? That thing scares me…yikes!

  8. Mark Caldwell Says:

    I’ve been up in a tethered hot air balloon and then back down again. I can highly recommend it.

  9. Nancy Says:

    I am with except for bungee dumping and skydiving—NO WAY!

    Have a great Thursday.

  10. Janet Says:

    What a great list, I hope you get to do it ALL!

  11. Lisa Says:

    Great list, every one of them!

    My TT is about a phonecam game, come check it out!

  12. Susan Helene Gottfried Says:

    I’ll do the Grand Canyon with you — how are we getting inside it? Bike? Donkey? Feet? Helicopter? What? You name it, I’m there. Just, uhh, keep the snakes away from me. Yick.

    Heck, I’ll do Canary Islands and Caribbean with you, too, if you need a friend…

    (Who, me? Got the travel bug? Nah…)

    Happy TT, my friend. Have a great week!

  13. Kitchen Table Chat Says:

    What a wonderful Thursday Thirteen.
    I would love to see a broadway play but have no desire to go to New York.

  14. L-Squared Says:

    Great list! I hope you get to do them all. I haven’t done any of these things, except scuba diving, but I’d like to do most all of them too.

  15. Danielle Says:

    Great list. I especially agree with #12. Dolphins for you. A whale watch for me. I would love to see the enormous creature close up and personal. I’ve been to the Grand Canyon once but it was not enough to take in the grandeur.

    Be well and enjoy the day.

  16. Sparky Duck Says:

    Ive done #5 and #8. The Dolphins were so so memorable. Its a must do! I will get to the Grand Canyon and do a cruise. Kiefer, you can have him

  17. Mama's Moon Says:

    I don’t know why but that one made me all teary, especially the one about your boys. *sigh* I think I’m pms-y…
    All great things to do before keeling over - I admire you for even wanting to bungee jump. You go, Girl!

    Happy Thursday!

  18. pinks & blues girls Says:

    Don’t you wanna meet James Patterson, too!? Or at least read all of his books?

    I want to swim with the dolphins too. But bungee jump? No thanks!!

    I will watch you (from the comfort of the ground), though!

    Jane, P&B Girls

  19. pussreboots Says:

    I’ve been on a cruise and been into the Grand Canyon. Both were amazing experiences. Happy TT.

  20. Rebecca Says:

    Roobik and I went on a hot air balloon ride before the kids were born - it was absoluetly one of the best experiences ever! We both LOVED it!! :)

  21. Jenny Says:

    That’s a great list! And I’m just going to say good luck to you on the bungee jumping and skydiving. I hate to fly, don’t really care for heights, and can’t see any reason to jump out of a perfectly good airplane. lol

  22. Barbara H. Says:

    Great list! I should make one like this some time!

  23. Homemom3 Says:

    3, 8 and 9 sounds like something I’d enjoy. 9 only if they could get me over my fear of heights but I’ve always dreamed of going up. Happy TT!

  24. magnolia sun Says:

    Excellent ideas and they sound like fun. I hope you are able to do those things when hubby returns - at least some of them.

  25. Lisa (qtpies7) Says:

    Great list! I’ve been parasailing, and it was actually pretty boring, but I’ll pass on the bungee jumping, maybe, maybe I would sky dive.
    We plan to do a cruise one day, too. But I’ll have to be not pregnant or nursing or have a toddler before I’ll go. So basically I’ll be a grandma by then! (My oldest is just about 18, and I’m nursing a baby, with at least 10 years of fertility ahead of me!)

  26. Lori Says:

    Sounds like a good list! The hubby and I were just talking about Grand Canyon tonight. I hope we can go next summer.

  27. boliyou Says:

    Great goals! I hope you post on their progress.

  28. Natalie Says:

    I’d like to see a Broadway play & go up in a hot air balloon, too.

    Happy TT!

  29. Rosemary Says:

    wonderful stuff thanx :)
