My list of 40 for Forty

So now it is my turn to turn 40 (which is the new 20)! So I am making a list of 40 things I want to do before I turn 80! Yeah, I am the slow one. This is what I have so far and I am interested in some suggestions; you see coming up with 40 things is hard to do! This is what I have so far:

1. Cross Country Skiing Marathon in Alaska. The next one is in March 2010. Must look into it!
2. Have a baby!
3. Walk El Camino in Spain
4. Take Flamenco Lessons
5. Visit all 7 Continents (I have visited/lived in NA, CA, SA, Europe just need Asia, Africa, Australia and Antarctica right?)
6. Visit Yosemite - Mission Accomplished on June 8th,2009
7. Go Shooting/Learn to shoot a gun - Mission Accomplished on March 2009.
8. Sky diving
9. Become a member of the Mile High Club.
10. Be a Movie Extra
11. Get on the Price is Right!
12. Go Roller Skating at the Roller Rink
13. Cross the Panama Canal/Go on a Cruise.
14. Learn to drive a stick so that I can buy a VW thing.
15. Learn to ride a motorcycle (wait I just might be getting desperate for ideas).
16. Take the Transiberian train!
17. Paintball anyone?

Any ideas? Hook me up!

My Favorite Time of Year


I love this time of year when all the trees are in blossom. We have a plum tree outside our house and I had to bring some of the beauty inside. I smile every time I see them.
