This blog is basically just a collection of my "random thoughts". I must warn you, though. I have been told that "I write like I talk", so if you don't understand what you are reading... chances are, if you met me... I wouldn't make much sense to you! Feel free to comment if you care to. Or not. I'm good either way!

Bucket List #13-15

#13 --- Raft down the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon --- This would of course be done during my visit to the Grand Canyon - (#12 on my list).


#14 --- Spend a week (or more) in Washington D.C., exploring and learning --- I've been to Washington D.C. a couple of times, but both times were just DAY trips. There is just WAY too much to see and do in D.C. to try and do it all in one day! I would love to have the time to take it slow and really see everything. I have never been to the Capital or The White House, so those are two things that I would want to do for sure. I also really want to go to the Holocaust musuem.


#15 --- Take a road trip to the west coast with no time limit and make stops along the way at
interesting places. --- Of course, this kinda' goes along with my wish to drive Route 66 - (#10 on my list). But, if I were to do this... I would leave from home to do it, so that is a bit different. So, I would drive from Georgia to California (I guess). A convertible for this trip would be fun, too!

Bucket List #10-12

#10 --- Drive (or ride) Route 66 and stop at all the unique places along the way --- I think this would be SO much fun!! Of course, I see myself doing this in a convertible... but, hey... if I ever get to do it... then, it won't really matter what kind of vehicle I am in! I need to research what towns and sites are along the way. Doing this would help me to complete #3 on my Bucket List -- Visiting all 50 states!


#11 --- Visit Castle Hollenzollern in Germany --- By researching my family history, I found out that my Brandenburg ancestors (my mother's maternal side) were Prussian royalty back in early 1500's. The Hohenzollern family ruled Prussia & Brandenburg until the end of World War I. There is even a castle that belonged to them. The castle is located 30 miles south of Stuttgart, Germany and is open for touring. It looks so beautiful!

#12 --- Visit the Grand Canyon --- I find it amazing that Dtr. #2 has seen this Wonder of the World and I haven't yet! But, I plan to someday! Maybe I will get to on my Route 66 trip!
