Stitchinwitch,

Fresno has been very cool this year, we have had the nicest weather you could imagine here. However, it is starting to warm up finally, in the 90's today.

For all of you who said "hot air balloon ride"....they are amazing! I took one a couple of years ago in southwest Colorado ----- Pagosa Springs, I think. As a terrified airplane flier, I almost chickened out, but they say that balloon flight is very very different, and they are RIGHT! You don't feel the breezes, as you are "one with the breezes"....and then we helped chase down the next flight, roll up the balloon and pack it back in the trailer, before champagne and muffins for brunch, and a talk about hot air balloon history and why champagne is such a big part of it! If I can do it, anybody can....

I love Canada also. The first time I was there it was winter and everyone was friendly, smiling, and greeting us. We dined on a patio while the snow was lightly falling and we loved it. We went to a ski resort called HoneyPot, it had an ice bar and we skied. We toured the areas, Casa Loma, I even sat on the throne (in fact a few of us did, we were nurses in the 1960's). I have been there a few more times and would love to visit more often. I know this was about the bucket list, however, Canada caught my eye. So here is my thoughts. And for you many Good thoughts.

My bucket list:

1: Ride a custom built Chopper across the country for a month or so
2: To race a car on the Bonneville Salt Flats and make it into the 300mph club
3: To own one of each of the makes of Vintage Sewing Machines that were made during the "Sewing Machine Wars"
4: To go to Israel and walk in my Brothers footsteps
5: To make the important people in my life happy and know that they are loved

I know the first one will be done in a few months and the second one will be happening in the future sometime soon I hope. The rest I will have to work on, but it is hard to pick a top 5 on something like this.

4. To make some kind of major contribution that improves people's lives (could be a scientific discovery, an invention, or a business product or service, just something that really helps people in some way).
5. To find my soulmate. (He hasn't shown up yet, so I don't have much hope for this, but it can still happen.)
Maybe he is waiting for you in England or Scotland!
Now there's a wish in the making!
