I'll be your huckleberry.

Well Hello there! I have been thinking as of late, which is typically a bad idea for me. But what I came up with were a few more things for my bucket list! #106: I want to spend the 4th of July weekend seeing all of the historical sites that started this country. Go from the Liberty Bell right down to the White House. And on that lovely patriotic note, comes #107. After I do my traveling to Europe and the like, I will return by boat to America. I have found that there are freighter ships that have cabins available for travelers to rent out. Not the high class accommodations of a cruise ship, but then again that isn't what I am going for. I want to sail into Ellis Island, see the Statue of Liberty and feel the hope of a new life in a "new" country as my ancestors did. How amazing would that be? I want to experience it as they did, or as close to as I can. I think this would be downright exhilarating! I have lived in the West my entire life, but it occurs to me as many Louis L'Amour books as I read, and westerns as I watch, I have never been to Tombstone, Arizona. The famous shoot out at the OK Corral. Great Scot Man, why have I not been? This will be numero 108! Well now that I just said Great Scot, I reminded myself of two of my favorite movies and I very much wish to watch one of them... too bad our dang DVD player is broken. Well I bid you all a very fond adieu. :)
