things I want to do.....
I am not a list person. Well, I do make lists of the unimportant things like chores for the day and what bills are due what day of the month, etc. “Things I want to do before I die” is an internal list that keeps changing, depending on my state of mind. A few things keep popping up, so I guess these are my top five or six…..
Visit Italy – not for a few days but for at least 2 weeks or longer if possible. I want to go to a few of the famous places like Venezia and Firenze, but also to as many places as I can as suggested by a native Italian.
Live in a very small house somewhere on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State. If I cannot or choose not to move there, I would like to find such a place to stay for an entire summer.
Get my financial affairs in order
Have more close friends or possibly get married
Go on as many back-road trips as I possibly can and photograph what I see
Pass on some of the knowledge that I have picked up about life – by volunteering my time and writing at least one book (I have at least one book in mind)
So there you have it – I am pretty much of a dreamer who luckily has a fair amount of common sense – or at least enough to survive!!
p.s. one of my beliefs is: Don’t just survive – Thrive!!
p.p.s. I know this is more than six things –

An excellent image and it seems just right for your musings.
Welcome cdcootie - thank you for your comment. This is one small corner of a rather highly developed city park that I have never photographed before. I plan to spend some more time with these trees!!
This photo seems like an album cover. The title could be, "The Secrets of Trees", or something similar.
Beautiful shot. Again.

Indeed.
You have an eye for beauty:-)
Ptelea. That's a wonderful list and I sincerely hope that you will pursue each and every one of them. I know that you won't regret it. Can you just imagine yourself, camera in hand, visiting/living in all of the places that you mentioned? It all sounds fantastic to me. Where to first? Italy? Set at date and do it!
