Stuff I've done
As I've been nosing around I've come across other people's bucket lists, and while I've gotten some great ideas reading these, I've also noticed that I've done a lot of the things that are on people's lists. One thing I am grateful for is that so far I have lived a pretty good life, done a lot, and experienced a lot. So with that in mind, I decided to compile a list of things that I've done that WOULD have been on my bucket list, if I had made one earlier, again in no particular order.
