A couple items on my bucket list is to step foot on all 50 & lick a glacier. I got 5 states to go and the glacier has been licked up Alaska way.

I just returned from Maine where I went out on a 115' schooner for 3 days. I always wanted to do this but never had the time when I was young. Too many obligations, you know, job, kids, life... However, I'll say it was pretty awesome, even at my age. Yep.

My bucket list keep's growing as I get older, problem is I'm older.  I've been to most of the places you guy's mentioned and a few more, problem is the military never puts you up at the nice hotels, lol  (it's still fond memories and I would do it all over again, but I would take a few pictures next time).
