The Bucket List
I have never taken the time to write a bucket list, although there has always been one in my head. Now, please know that this is in no particular order, just as things popped into my head. I knew when I saw the prompt for Writers Workshop that I wouldn't be able to come up with 100 things, so lets try 50 for now!

I'm with you on the trip to Hershey PA! Sounds like a great idea. I'm stopping in from Mama Kat's - I live in Ohio, too! This week, I wrote about my mom and I, who are Fiestaware collectors.
i like your list :) it's hard to think of so many things! i might give it a try. haha.
Love the plan to learn canning! I looked into it a few times and then realized that I need just a little more storage room first - hopefully soon!
From Mama Kats... I put up some pictures that I AM going to get printed soon.
This is a great list. I would want to do a lot of these myself.
Stopping by from Mama Kat's.
This is a great list! I didn't do the bucket list because I doubt I could come up with 100, LOL
We have a few that are the same!
Stopping by from Mama Kat's.
Fantastic list!
I'm about an hour from Hershey and have a friend who worked at Hershey Park and lived just outside the town - her parent's back yard smells like brownies. It's a beautiful thing :)
Btw, I hope this doesn't super creepy or anything, but I drove past a sign for Salt Fork State Park this weekend on my way to Cincinnati. I couldn't figure out why it sounded so familiar, but I just remembered that it was from reading it on your blog!
This is a great list.
This is a really great list, especially if you just sat down and wrote what came to you. I hope you get to do all of it!
