Bucket List

[natedog7700]

Lets hear what you guys have for your bucket list. Or maybe things you crossed off your list that are worth mentioning!

[RABAUKE]

Grand Prix Monaco, I'd love to go.

[fhaze3]

Rode a mechanical bull in Austin. It wasn't on my bucket list 5 min prior to seeing that glorious bastard.

Drove Tail of the Dragon several times on 2 wheels FJR1300 , and my M3.

Drove on zee Autobahn. (not in a fast car sadly)

[sales@vivid]

Hike Havasu Falls. Its about a 15 mile hike EACH WAY, into the grand canyon, but when you get to the end, you get to experience one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world!

[Mr Tonka]

Just did one this last week. Bicycled from Glacier National Park to Yellowstone National Park.

Monaco for me as well. I also want to visit Iceland and grab pics of the aurora borealis. Fly 1st class to Europe or someplace distant. Visit Prague (very doable) and Italy.

I lived and worked in Germany in the mid-to-late 80's, so I did the autobahn before there were speed limits everywhere. Had a 633CSi, so the right car for the job. Flew a Cobra helicopter for a few hours in the early 80's when I was in the Air Cav. That was cool. Did the whole crotch rocket thing and owned a roadster. Check and check.

The biggest item on my bucket list now is to stay healthy long enough to enjoy retirement and travel a lot more.

Done:

Hiked Na Pali coast end to end.
Hiked to the top of Half Dome and many other great spots in the Sierra Nevadas.

Want to do:

Road trip around the US.

Rafted the Colorado
Rafted the Ocoee
Rafted the Chattooga - which I underestimated and was ejected out of the raft when we hit a rapid wrong and had to float almost half a mile before another crew scooped me up till my raft came by. I must've swallowed a gallon of water and pissed myself.

NICE. I've got to get that done. I turned 50, 5 years ago on the weekend of the Race, just couldn't pull it together....maybe for 60. My wife will be retired then, nice trip for the both of us.

WSOP!!! And????? Do tell.... Main Event? Series event? This may need a thread of it's own!

LOL, I wish there was enough to tell for it's own thread. I played in the Tag Team Event this year and the daily deepstack tourneys every day that week. I cashed in 2 out of 9 tourneys, but no big money to write home about.

I'd love to play the main event, but $10k is a bit steep for me. I plan to go every year now and play one or two of the lower buy-in events and the daily deepstacks again. If I get a big cash I'll buy into the main, or perhaps try to satellite in.

I've done this man and it's fun. A few buddies and I went to Costa Rica and did a full day of fishing. It's wild and very physical to reel one of those bad boys in. They put up a huge fight. Depending on your charter and marina - we were able to catch a lot of Dorado to sell back to the Marina which then sells them to restaurants and locals. Was pretty damn cool. My recommendation is go with a solid charter, bring TONS of water and sunscreen. We were told not to bring too much alcohol because you dont want to be too drunk when reeling in a 150lb fish with a sword and razor sharp fin.

Was closed when I was in Europe for 2 weeks. So bummed out
On the other hand Switzerland was amazing
