This is so cool. Good for you and good for your parents on encouraging you to spend the money on something frivolous. I think your list is awesome and I may have to “borrow” some for my list. I actually live in Omaha and was surprised to read that you did too. If you want to have a drink with Bono just come on back to Omaha and go to the Dundee Dell because when he is in town he tends to go to dinner there. I hope you and your husband are able to have a great time doing whatever it is you choose to do and I hope he can find a job. Good luck!

Yaaay for frivolous! Whatever you decide, I hope you have a wonderful delightful most marvelous go of it sans unnecessary guilt. Enjoy!

I want to go to Russia. Well, actually the Ukraine to see where my paternal great-grandparents fled from so they wouldn’t end up in the gulag.

I want to climb the South Sister too someday, since no one has put an elevator up there yet.

ARGH! I was just reminded of another bucket list item … seeing Phish live on NYE!

That is my most out of reach bucket list item. I have no idea how I could make that happen! I just want to have a beer with Bono. I think I would be completely speechless in front of him and wouldn’t be able to talk, ya know.

The easiest one on your list is “Climb South Sister”. Well, not exactly easy in the effort it reqauires, but it certainly doesn’t cost a lot to do. You really don’t need good gear to do this one, just bring plenty of water and wait until August.

Just think, if you push hard, you could have your book done before you climb the mountain.

Somehow having a drink with Bono wouldn’t be high on my list, because I have a feeling his conversation topics might not be the kind of thing I would want to talk about versus taking about the band.
