THE BUCKET LIST


My Grandma came up for a visit on 5-27. We've been planning this trip since last fall. My grandma is only 76 years old, but she has a bucket list. Those of you who have seen the movie know what that is. For those who haven't, it's just a list of things you'd like to see or do before you "kick the bucket". On the list was "to go on a cruise", which we went on in February. Another on the list is "to see Old Faithful". So we took my grandma up to Yellowstone National Park. Along the way, we got out of the car to take pictures. The best stop was by a lake where there was about 4 feet of snow on the sides of the road. Monte started a snowball fight with Madison. We also got to see the Old Faithful Inn, which was built in the winter of 1903-04. The last on my grandma's list is to see Chicago, which she will get to do in July, when she travels with my aunt. My grandma says she will have to start a new bucket list soon, so if you have any suggestions
please share!

Well, I say your Grandma needs to have sky diving on the list. After all it was on the movie list. LOL

What a great idea. Especially good for you that you are helping her to mark those things off her bucket list. One to add to the list perhaps climb Diamond Head on Hawaii, I think there are stairs. j/k
