10 Things to do before I die.

Hey all, sorry for the delay on posting.  I have been busy with work and just generally un-motivated to write.  Anyway, today I am going to make a list of 10 things I would like to do before I die.  Why am I doing this you may ask?  Because shut up, that's why.  Seriously though, I do like the idea of a bucket list and here are some things from mine.

1. Get married.  This is a pretty obvious one (especially for those of you that know me) as I am a bit of a romantic.  I just think that life is better when you have someone that you love to share it with.

2. Have children.  Again, pretty obvious.  I really want to be a father one day.

3. Own a cattle ranch.  Yes, I mean it.  If this surprises you then you clearly have not been paying attention.

4. Visit Ireland/Scotland.  My family has a great deal of heritage from these countries and I have had a great desire to visit them since I was a child.  These is so much wonderful history in these countries and I want to see it.

5. Fight a bear.  This would likely be the last thing on my list, but I think if I was gonna be dead soon anyway (say starving or sick) this would be a badass way to go.  Just sayin'.

6.  Be a mentor to someone.  I know how important mentors can be in a young man's life.  I have a great relationship with my mentor/friend and I don't know where I would be without it.  I just hope that one day I can speak into someones life the same way he spoke into mine.

7.  Do a cattle drive.  Just like City Slickers.  Get a few friends and join a large multi-state cattle drive.  This just sounds like a blast to me.

8.  Spend and extended period in nature alone.  Again, this just sounds like fun.  It would be a great time of self reflection and time to spend with God.

9.  Ride a bull.  Do I really need to explain?

and 10.  Learn to play the banjo.  I'm not explaining this one.  Deal with it.  :)

Well, there ya have it, a list of 10 things I want to do before I die.  What about you guys?  Do you have anything?  Feel free to comment and let me know.  I'm interested to see what you guys have.

God bless!
