Elite  3235     San Diego |  Subject: Life's to do list:OK, I have a short list of things I want to do before I die.
During my Ironman trainng I was worried about spending too much time away from the rest of the cow family. Happycow told me "Don't worry about it, I think it's cool that you get to cross something off your list" (how cool is that?) I'm not sure why I want to visit Spain, but I do. I want to spend time with my camera and family just soaking in the whole Alaskan countryside. I am finding that driving the Zamboni is working out to be the hardest thing on my list. I think you need some sort of blessing from the Pope to drive one. I have tried everything. Befriending the rink workers and bribery (Beer and money). I was even thinking about working there until the driver told me that he waited years before he was allowed to drive the thing. I have to keep working o this one, maybe after I retire. This is my list, what's yours? |

Never been out of the mainland, out of the US, farther north than Chattanooga; and went to San Diego once at age six. My husband, otoh, has been everywhere courtesy of the US Navy. |

| Subject: RE: Life's to do list: Write the novel and the two screenplays Figure out what the hell I'm doing Learn to play the piano Run a marathon I guess I should count myself lucky that these are all things I CAN do, and that I'm not at the mercy of the Zamboni gods!  |

Supersonicus Idioticus 2439 Thunder Bay, ON | Subject: RE: Life's to do list: southernaquagoddess - 2005-09-30 6:06 PM See a moose (don't ask me why). Catch a fish....I've tried, never caught one. Maybe I'm too hyper. I went up north for a vacation, to northern ontario. There should have been moose everywhere! (especially in front of your car). I didn't see one in 6 days. I also went fishing and caught a nice 20 incher first cast. |
