Do you have a bucket list? Share something that's on it.

I have a plethora of Bucket list things that I still need to accomplish. One thing is that I really love to fish and something that I really would love to do is go deep sea fishing. More importantly, I would love to be able to catch a fish that is just as big as I am. I always tell my wife that I want to be sore after reeling in ONE fish!! –Cody Struss

I do not have a Bucket list per se, but there are some things I would like to witness. Since I was in high school, I have wanted to witness the march of The Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo (as known as The Mothers of the Disappeared) in Buenos Aires, Argentina. –Kate Hazen

I haven’t really thought of this too much. But I think if I had to say one thing, it would be to go on a guided tour or vacation to see castles, new, old, ruins… as many as I could see. I LOVE Castles. Maybe I was a Princess in my past life! –Halea Pacula

I don’t have a bucket list. But I do have a few places I would like to travel to someday, including the Grand Canyon, Alaska, and Australia. –Michelle Graef

My bucket list mainly revolves around travel! Some of the places on my bucket list are Greece, the Maldives, St. Lucia, the Galapagos Islands, Italy, the Netherlands (when the Northern Lights are visible), Egypt, Japan (during cherry blossom season), New Zealand, Australia, Spain, and Portugal. –Maggie Thompson

No, I don’t. The concept is antithetical to the farmer’s maxim: “Work like there’s no tomorrow. Plan like you’ll live forever.” Ergo the acknowledgment of a “bucket” in the context of planning would suggest that it’s all really just work. –Jeff Chambers

I don’t have a Bucket List per se but if I did mine would be made up of a lot of travel to places such as Spain/Portugal, back to Sweden, New Mexico/Arizona, Hawaii, and along Route 66 to name a few. I’d also like to travel by train and hike along the trails in Sedona AZ and Appalachia. And since I enjoy driving, I’d love to take off with no destination in mind and just go. . . -Chris Wiklund
