Bucket Lists

Last Saturday I was part of the choir who sang at 2 Confirmation Masses. The Bishop asked the kids if they had a bucket list. Well here is were you insert the "deer in the headlight" look. They had no idea. He asked if any of the adults did to which lots of hands were raised. Then he explained what a bucket list was and there were a bunch of "ohhh"s that went around the room. Well it got me to thinking, I've said I would put together a bucket list but I've never really sat down and put one together. I do know most of my "to dos" would be travel to here and do this.

Do you have a bucket list? What's on your list? I found a few websites that have suggestions of what to put on your bucket list. Here are some of them:
