(X) Gone to a drive-in movie - I wish there were places we could still do this!
(X) Done something that could have killed you-but not bungee jumping - Driving! I got bumped on the 405 and my car spun (twice) and I almost got hit by a big semi!

(X) Been in a car accident - too many times
( ) Been in a serious car accident - No. Thank God (although if that Truck hit me, it would've been serious)

( ) Gone Curling ... on my list. I wanna use that little broom (sweep, sweep, sweep)

I have a bunch of stuff on my Bucket list that are not on this list. I'll have to post that at some point.

Richard hardly needs encouragement to go flying, so whenever you want to go, just give us a ring.
