Bucket List 2008

“I keep seeing previews for a movie called 'The Bucket List' and thought this would be a great thread to start. The movie will most likely suck, but I like the idea of creating a list of things to do in 2008 and seeing how many I can accomplish - then update everyone when and if I do. It would also be cool to see what everyone else aims to do this year.

So, for me, for starters, in no particular order...

1. Summit Rainier
2. Run a marathon
3. Summit first 14er in Colorado
4. 100 Mile Wilderness
5. Get promoted - so I can afford these trips
6. Presidential Traverse
7. Send cards during holidays - I freakin hate doing this but always feel bad I never to - are single dudes required to send cards to family or do you get a pass until married?
8. Get sloppy drunk watching my Patriots win the Super Bowl, Celtics win NBA Title, and the Red Sox go back to back - I'm really trying to get this list to 10
9. Head out on a few trips with you TTers
10. 100 Mile Wilderness”

“Crap - 100 Miles Wilderness x 2 - so my list is only 9. So -

10. Actually go 'ultra light' on a multi-day this year (I love to pack it in)”

“11. Get someone to respond to a thread I post
12. Start a thread about the worst threads ever created...then put this thread on it”

“LOL!

chowdahead - this is a great idea for a thread. Give it some time.”

“Hmmm, it's been a couple of years since I attempted the Pressy Traverse. I might have to make another stab at it. I'd like to make another try at Bob Marshall's "Big Hike" in the Adirondacks as well or at the very least a Great Range traverse dayhike. I also want to do another Devil's Path dayhike and include Hunter into the mix.

I can already hear my knees screaming at me.”

“uh
1) save money for a new car
2) take a trip to Maine
3) hike some place other than Mt. Rogers
4) go back to school for some sorta advanced degree
5) get a job I actually like”

“Threesome with a set of midget twins”

“Chowda - You need to survive your first TT trip first, moooooooohahahahahahahaha”

“1. Clean out Basement
2. Finish all the small projects I haven't
3. Welcome a new girl or boy into the world
4. Finish landscaping house
5. Hike more
6. Run more
7. Drink more
8. Gain more weight
9. Complete first ever thru hike of a trail
10. ??????”

“MIDGETS is not PC, they prefer to be call LITTLE PEOPLE - or so I've heard. I would like to add that to my list

13. Bang a little person (just one though, two would be overwhelming and twins confusing - I'll wait for the Lorax trip report
