    What big things did you once have on your bucket list that you have already crossed off?

    1. Attend the Rose Bowl
    2. Buy Land and have a cabin

    That is it for me.

    Those are the only ones I've done thus far. Still plenty of check offs to make. Now if I could just move back to Alaska now that I'm older I would be able to check off a lot them. Haha :)

    Yet to accomplish:

    100 pound Tarpon
    Bull Elk with a bow
    Bear with a bow
    Pronghorn with a bow

    In work but not completed yet:

    Perfect marriage.
    Son, living a well disciplined, successful, happy and holy life.

    Checked off:

    Rangerboat... Not nearly as great as I envisioned.
    Going home. I found out home is where you hang your hat.
    Over ten pound bass... put her back without even taking a picture.
    Bunches of big bucks... horns thrown in a bucket in the barn.

    The things in the bucket aren't nearly as exciting once checked off. The journey getting there is a blast.

    I'd have to think about it, but the one thing I can think of is seeing the Bears and Packers at Lambeau Field.

    And every other heterosexual adolescent male on earth.

    My biggest goal in life up until this point has been to finish my education. Im 2 weeks away from that.

    Then the doors open up.
