10 Things I would like to do before I die

Life can seem so short when you want to do many things, at 49 years of age my list is still as long as it was when I was 29, so I compiled a short list of the things I would like to do in this life time below.

These are the 10 things in no particular order.

1. I've never really travelled much so would love to do Egypt and a trip to Kenya.

2. Learn to fly a helicopter, (I took flying lessons and can fly a plane already).

3. Learn to swim and go scuba diving, (49 and swim like a brick with holes in).

4. Swim with dolphins, (this of course depends on 3)

5. Publish a book, (have written down a few ideas and started one but thats it).

6. Find the meaning of life, (ok this may not happen, but I'm working on it).

7. Have enough space to keep at least a dozen retired Greyhounds.

8. See a volcano in action.

9. Try fresh lobster.

10.Drive a decent car that doesn't always seem to break down or need repairing.

A meme is an idea, project, statement or even a question that is posted by one blog and responded to by other blogs. Although the term encompasses much of the natural flow of communication in the Blogosphere, there are active bloggers and blog sites that are dedicated to the creation of memes on a regular basis, so a meme involves 'tagging' someone else to do a post on your given subject, in this case '10 Things I would like to do before I die' .

This is our first and for this I tag Lisa. See lisa's entries Here
