Life List
I've been reading a variety of "things to do" life lists recently and decided to start my own. Many of these will have to wait for some time until I reach the stage when my savings outweigh my debts ... but it gives me something to aim for ;o)
So, here goes:
1. Find a job I truly enjoy.
2. Develop my photography skills.
3. Complete (eek) and have published (double eek) a novel.
4. Visit the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas.
5. Experience Christmas/New Year in New York.
6. Visit South American - see the Aztec/Mayan structures.
7. Learn to roller skate.
8. See the Pyramids.
9. Visit San Francisco.
10. Go on an African safari.
11. Mentor someone.
12. Make a significant contribution to a worthy cause anonymously.
13. See the northern (and/or southern) lights.
14. Visit New England in the autumn.
15. Learn Tai Chi.
So, what's on your life list?

I had to write, one Rhea to another Rhea. I like your list. I want to do the African safari, for one thing. I live in New England, and autumn here is really nice.
Hello Rhea and welcome.
I had a look through your blog and discovered the Foliage Report ... hehe, marvellous!
I am of course with you on number 3. I would also like to die old and (as far as possible) healthy. Numbers 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 14 and others like them would also be on my list were I not committed to minimising my flying (sigh...)
Yes, the whole flying issue is a big one ... although I doubt very much that I will ever be in a position to visit all of those places.
The American ones will most likely happen. I have a very close friend in America and I will definitely be visiting there at least several times in my life. As I don't drive or even own a car, I don't feel as bad about a few flights.
My list, which I wrote at 16, is 100 and some long...
i've veen listing them on my blog...

and

finished adding about half to my blog, finished about half of the 100
one of which was to get married and have children :)... almost there ;)
I'd love to make a list - one day perhaps. 9 and 11 resonate for me at present!
Number one: Make a decision and stick to it. It seems pointless listing anything else until I have mastered that one!
