We don't have a bucket list. We just "wing it" for most trips. We've found anytime we try to put something on a "to-do" list it really complicates matters so we let things happen as they will and do what we can/when it works out and call ourselves lucky!

That is what we do while on the road. I know some people plan out every night's stop before leaving home-- we DON'T. We have pulled into some places we thought we would spend one night and end up spending a week and of course the opposite-- places that sound like we would want to spend a week and end up leaving the next morning.
But particularly on planning something as big as a sail boat trip (last one from Galveston Bay, Texas to the Abacos, Bahamas and back) or a driving trip to the southern end of South America, it takes us a lot more work to make everything fall into line.

I have been working on my "bucket list" the past 5 years - and it is not getting any shorter!!!! Why? Well, it's not that I haven't crossed any off, it is that I keep adding more  Ain't life grand. I hope to visit all the national parks, I am making a dent in that list, many more to go, it is great to see the beauty of the USA.
Brett, thanks for sharing your knowledge of all things engine - you have responded to all my posts - even the ones where it is very apparent that "I am clueless" - even though I don't always understand the mechanics, I appreciate the education.

Do not know if they will take me after heart and eye surgery and I have problems with Retta letting me sell enough possessions to pay the fees. Maybe after a few years if will be cheaper than it is today.

Wally,
WOW. And I though a trip to South America was "way out there"!
Are you already practicing your "Beam Me Up Scotty"?
Sorry, I had to change "Bridge" to "Bride"-- too hard to explain to Dianne and wouldn't want to see you in the dog house!

I added one thing to mine this fall (while in New Zealand) and took care of it the same day. The whole trip, including 3 weeks in Australia had been on our bucket list for a while. Great trip.

As far as MH travels, we have a number of states to hit yet. Our next trip will include Key West for Halloween!!

We sold our sailboat last summer. We had sailed the Atlantic from Maine to the far southern Bahamas while living aboard for almost 8 years. It was a big item on our bucket list and we loved it!
The next item on our list to tour the US National Parks, so we bought a 2004 Tiffin Phaeton. We plan to head out in the spring and begin our next great adventure.
Trip planning is giving us a bit of trouble! Not quite sure how to organize it.

We have no bucket list. We just go where the setting sun and the Lord leads us.
