Unlikely, but I've always dreamt of going to the moon.

I would be fine with space

I was thinking about bucket list items lately. Didn’t think of this but honestly it makes sense and I would stay it’s still on there

Other things I was thinking of:

1. Be on a game show. Preferably Jeopardy but I’ll take any of them honestly

2. Drive the Dalton Highway all the way up to the Northern border of Alaska

I had a third one but can’t think of it right now

Glad this was bumped. Since all of us are over six years closer to slipping this mortal coil.

I want to be a 'gentleman driver' at least once in life. What that means is if you watch any sports car racing endurance races like the 24 Hours of Daytona they usually have two or three pro drivers and one or two rich dudes that are decent drivers but pay for their seat. Depending on the event and the quality of the team/car it costs between $50,000 and $200,000 to do this.

Netflix made a documentary about it a few years ago:

Granted, I wouldn't be able to afford to do it at Le Mans. But I'm sure I can scrape together enough to do something like the Six Hours at The Glen. I would absolutely pay $50,000 to $100,000 to do this with the right track/car/team.

It’s weird. When I made my first post in this thread I still lived in NY. I moved to NC a month later. Not that I’m a much different person but I aged from 24 years to 30 years in that span and have lived a lot of life in that span

Salma Hayek. Twice.

Still this.

Huh, didn't reply to this originally

I want to visit the remaining 8 states I don't have- ND, SD, KS, OK, ID, MT, AK, HI

Complete my set of pucks for teams I've seen play- haven't seen VGK, DAL, DET, now obviously SEA, you'd think this would be simple and I know it's lame. For baseball, been stuck at only not seeing KC and Arizona for a while now but I've lost interest in that sport.

See a West Ham match in London. Bucket list item to see it at the Boleyn is impossible now.

Go to London and Paris.

Get a part time/weekend job on the radio. Did it for a year out of college and really want to get back into it. Hard to come by since these days so many stations are automated, especially for weekends.

Generally though, I guess the big one is to get the kiddos through college and retire with enough money and life remaining to just go do whatever Mrs. F and I feel like whenever.

I never responded originally, but I think that was because I was still working on my Masters and hadn't really given it thought.

I think the easiest thing would be to play golf in all 50 states (currently am at a paltry... 6? PA, OH, VA, NC, SC, FL... wait, also add CA in there, but that was with rentals so not sure how much that counts).

Beyond that, I'd love to go to the UK and Ireland (for both touristy stuff and golf), and then try to find the village in Finland where my paternal great grandmother's family came from (the other side is from Greece, but that's a little less appealing).

Scuba Diving and I hope to check it off my list a week from today.

I'd like to experience Thailand the way Bourdain did in his TV show, i.e. not like a typical tourist.

When this was bumped, I started reading the thread from the top. I was like, "I wonder if DD.......", and sure enough.........

This is a great one. Would love to try Links golf once I am able to shoot in the upper 80s/low 90s consistently.

ohhh yeah that’s my third thing, thanks MR and shaf

I want to play Pebble, St. Andrews and TPC Sawgrass. For my 35th bday I’m already planning on going to Pebble

I don’t yearn for anything enough to have a bucket list. Is that weird?

I'd like to get back to Japan, preferably multiple times.
I'd like to visit Iceland.
I'd like to see more of the US. Maybe a cross-country drive.
I want to own a Grand Seiko watch. I'm planning on buying one next year to celebrate the 20th anniversary of becoming a lawyer.
I'd like to own a Korth revolver (the Rolls Royce of revolvers).

I got nothing. Even my op feels pointless now.

Travel - checked off Australia, next on list is Italy which hopefully work will get me there in 23 for Ryder Cup. Also want to hit Montreal and Western Canada at some point. Have 5 states to go and I want to complete that by 23 as well if my Alaska work plan comes to fruition next year.

Golf - St Andrews, check…still need Pebble and Augusta to retire from the game. Media lottery at Masters has gotten tougher to crack.

Postby **dodint** » Thu Jul 22, 2021 9:03 pm

I want to play Nemacolin CC really badly. I caddied there as a mid-teenager and it would mean a lot to me to do so. But not until I'm a better golfer. Not Woodlands, the one near Bealsville.

I'm thinking about joining Latrobe Country Club for my 40th birthday (next year, *sigh*) so that's a bit too inevitable to put on the list.

I'd like to get to each tennis grand slam tournament and hopefully, grand slam finals also. Australia will be the hardest one since I'd like to spend a whole month or more there.

I didn't realize there was a lottery for media play too.
