Own a cane.
When I see someone with a cane I think it's rather an impressive note. There are ways to do canes, and ways to not. They can complete an outfit, or destroy one.
I'm not talking about those old-person type of canes with the rubberized bottoms - no, I'm talking about those super sick fashion statement type of canes.

Build a castle in the middle of nowhere.
Also on the trip with my roommate I realized how boring the drive through Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, etc is. One way I think would be a cool way to remedy the absolute boringness of the drive is to build a huge European-style castle not far off of the highway.
One could make it a rest area, an amusement park, a restaurant, whatever! Just something so that when travelers become weary of the desert drive they could have a pick-me-up.
Oh yes, I think of these things. Haha!

Visit Roswell.
Last week I drove across half the country with my old roommate (she was moving from Cali to Texas!) and we went by a sign for Roswell and I discovered my desire to go and visit the area. It's been talked about so much I'd like to just go there, take a few pictures, leave a mark of some sort and then scoot. Just to say I've been there.

Have someone wait for me at the airport with a sign.
Such a cheesy cheesy thing, but it's so hilarious when the person knows you and you know the person.
This would best be accomplished when the traveler thinks they will be picking their own car up from the parking lot and driving themselves home when in reality their significant other (or just a friend --- so much cuter if it's the other though) is taking them home and they have a sign in their hands just waiting for traveler to see them.

Make sense?!?

Pet a lion.
Who doesn't want to get so close to such a magnificent beast and pet it?? Besides - it's just a big kitty!

Ride an elephant.
Think I'll put this off until I've ridden a horse, just so I can get used to the heights..
Elephants are gorgeous creatures, I can't even imagine what it'd be like to ride something so great and powerful.

Build a light bulb from scratch.
I know you can go to a store and buy a light bulb no problem, but it would be so rewarding to build one yourself and then be able to use it. I have no clue how to even begin to put a light bulb together, but I'm sure one could find the directions somewhere!

Ride a train... On top of the train.
In the midst of my traveling the past couple of weeks I saw a part of "Water for Elephants" where two of the characters go on top of the train and sit up there. It would be absolutely incredible to see the entire movie. As well as ride on top of a train! Hehe :)

Learn how to make stained glass.

It's been awhile since I updated, but that doesn't mean I don't have a list!

I think stained glass pieces are gorgeous and would love to have my own creation in my home someday.
