What's on your bucket list?

To drive across the US

[Mr Roxy]

One thing is to ride a zip line. Intend to do it on Fremont St in Vegas when we go in September . Also intend taking a European river cruise in 2015 to celebrate my 70 th birthday and my wife's 65 th

Another one is to ride the Cyclone @ Coney

Short list right now and hope to add to it in the future.

Glad you won't see this Roxy since you have me on ignore. Visiting Tibet.

[Mr Roxy]

I can just imagine what you said re my post.

[Marianne2]

I would like to go to London someday to check out the theater scene over there. I would also love to revisit Los Angeles and do more than drive through Chicago. And cities in the USA that I have yet to visit but want to are Seattle and San Francisco.

[SNAFU]

Marianne2 I would love to comment on you wanting to see Seattle, San Francisco and London to check out the theatre scene but I have you on block and can't see what you wrote!

[ak72090]

you guys do realize that this is a message board, and not real life?

[Marianne2]

No.

[SNAFU]

ak, I would comment but you are on ignore and I don't even know you responded to this thread!

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

I hope "have shame-free sex with a man" is on Goth's list.

[Mr Roxy]

If it is who I am thinking of (the usual suspects) they really do not think it is.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

I think it is.

So many things, but my most important is to visit Russia in 2018 for the 100 year anniversary of the Romanov murders. I want to visit all their palaces in St. Petersburg, Tsarskoe Selo, Peterhof, and the Crimea, then go west out to Tobolsk and finally to Ekaterinburg for the midnight mass on July 16-17. Can you tell I've been planning? But the way it looks now the political situation will probably prevent me from ever getting there, which is sad.

Some others:
visit Savannah
get a book published
have a house in Key West
see every Bette Davis movie

[Jane2]

1. Live in a large open floor plan loft apt. (which I could do if I ever left NYC) but I won't.
2. Get my unfinished at the moment book published.

I feel blessed because I've always just gone and done what I wanted.

Sorry, I now need to go and take my pills ha ha

[Mr Roxy]

Want to go to a ballgame @ Fenway & Wrigley before I go.

[Eris0303]

In no particular order.

1. Run through a tulip field in Holland
2. Go to Green Gables
3. Go to the Superman Celebration in Metropolis, IL
4. Stay at the Cypress Inn in Carmel
5. (stealing a page out of Jane's..ahem...book) Get my finished but not yet proofread book published.

[SNAFU]

I would love to attend Burning Man.

[madbrian]

I'd like to travel to all six continents (Antarctica, oh please).

[Jane2]

Eris, at least your book is finished. This is hard work!

[Eris0303]

How many words do you have?

I'm finding the editing/proofreading process to be a lot more frustrating than the writing. Three proofreaders are MIA and one wants to rewrite the whole thing.

[Jane2]

I'm not that far. First thing I did was ask a professional reader I know to read what I had and tell me if it's any good. If she said no, then I wouldn't have to write the book. But she liked it. So now I'm retyping the whole thing in some kind of semblance or order. I'm not counting words but I don't want the finished thing to be more than about 200 pages.

[Eris0303]

I had a goal of 80,000 words and set a daily goal of 2,000 a day. I figured that was a fair number since the only time I could devote to writing was after work and weekends. I did make it to 80,000+ and 257 double spaced pages.

I'm still waiting on feedback but I have high hopes for it and big plans. If I didn't I would never have started :)

My brain is so far ahead of me I've already started planning the book release party at 54 Below

[Jane2]

haha, I'm already envisioning appearing on all the talk shows and discussing who will star in the movie version!

[Eris0303]

Haha - I'm going to Broadway with lyrics by Amanda Green!

I mention a lot of real songs in the book so I'll be teaming up with Born for Broadway to present a concert of the songs at 54 Below.

I'll also be going to San Diego Comic Con and other awesome places *grins*
