You are way more adventurous than I!

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.

Im sure you can scratch number 13 off..Hope you get to do the rest
July 11th, 2007 at 6:02 pm
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.
July 11th, 2007 at 6:14 pm
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.
July 11th, 2007 at 6:20 pm
They all sound great! Would you want to go on the new Grand Canyon Skywalk? That thing scares me…yikes!
July 11th, 2007 at 6:49 pm
I’ve been up in a tethered hot air balloon and then back down again. I can highly recommend it.
July 11th, 2007 at 7:23 pm
I am with except for bungee dumping and skydiving—NO WAY!
Have a great Thursday.
July 11th, 2007 at 8:12 pm
What a great list, I hope you get to do it ALL!
July 11th, 2007 at 8:32 pm
Great list, every one of them!
My TT is about a phonecam game, come check it out!
July 11th, 2007 at 8:43 pm
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!

What a wonderful Thursday Thirteen.
I would love to see a broadway play but have no desire to go to New York.
July 11th, 2007 at 11:23 pm
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.

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.

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
July 12th, 2007 at 10:20 am
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!

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!

I’ve been on a cruise and been into the Grand Canyon. Both were amazing experiences. Happy TT.
July 12th, 2007 at 12:55 pm
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!!
July 12th, 2007 at 1:15 pm
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
July 12th, 2007 at 1:23 pm
Great list! I should make one like this some time!
July 12th, 2007 at 5:44 pm
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!
July 12th, 2007 at 8:23 pm
Excellent ideas and they sound like fun. I hope you are able to do those things when hubby returns - at least some of them.
July 12th, 2007 at 8:52 pm
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!)
July 12th, 2007 at 9:19 pm
Sounds like a good list! The hubby and I were just talking about Grand Canyon tonight. I hope we can go next summer.
July 12th, 2007 at 10:46 pm
Great goals! I hope you post on their progress.
July 12th, 2007 at 11:33 pm
I’d like to see a Broadway play & go up in a hot air balloon, too.
Happy TT!
