Looking For Adventure

In the dead of winter in Winnipeg, one tends to have some time to think about what you are not doing. This time of year I find I don't do much and seem to let my mind wander about things that I would like to do. I have come up with a few things in no particular order that I want to do someday.

Attend a major College Bowl Game. I have watched many on TV. It looks like it would be an incredible experience. The pageantry, passion, and excitement would be worth the trip.

Fly a Beaver. I still think it is the coolest plane ever.

Fly a glider in mountain wave. Someday I will do some serious soaring and hit the pinnacle of the sport.

Play the piano in a public performance, again. I took lessons for years as a kid. Someday I will perform again.

Cross the equator. I want to see more of the world and flush a toilet and see it swirl the other way.

Make a documentary. I have no idea how at this time, but I will learn and tell a story worth telling.

There is a lot of other things I want to accomplish but these are the highlights. It's easy to get bogged down in day to day life. You have to keep some dreams alive or a part of you will die inside. I don't want that to happen to me.

I Survived Vegas Baby!

I returned from fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada. I saw a lot. I did a lot. There is a lot more than I can fit into one blog entry so I will be talking about several aspects of Vegas over the next few days. A few of the points that I will cover include:

Everything in Vegas is a hustle.

Everything in Vegas is huge.

Getting around Vegas is an adventure.

There is nothing like the people you meet in Vegas

There may be a few surprises along the way as well.

So tune in regularly to hear about my adventures, since there will be some great observations and opinions.
