While I should be grading my remaining TWELVE essays (collected 60 so I'm doing pretty good!), I instead worked on my bucket list for the summer. I just read it to Big and she got super excited . . . I guess that means we have to do these things now! #1 is on the agenda for this Friday and we just made the final flight reservations for our trip to Hawaii (#2). I'm hoping that some of our family will want to join us for #8 and #23. The most unrealistic one on this list would have to be #24 but it's a wish list, right? If you have an easy, small tent, I'd love to borrow it sometime for #12.

I have a tent! I'll be in Claremont in mid July and can drop it off if you want.
ReplyDeleteThanks, M! I'll be in touch . . .
ReplyDeleteI love your list, we'll be trying a few of these ourselves. #15 seems to always be on my "list" but hasn't happened yet...good luck!
ReplyDeleteI love this list. *steals idea and runs away* And we can help with #7 -- come to our place on the 4th, we get a great view of the Claremont fireworks for free!
ReplyDeleteWhoo hoo! Congratulations on hitting so many. Please DO NOT run a marathon in this heat---
