3 Three Things I want To Accomplish Before I Die!

In a recent conversation I was asked what I would like to accomplish before I die.  I could only come up with three things…

1.  Visit every state in the U.S. on my motorcycle.

2.  Spend some time in England.

3.  Write a book.

I was shocked by how few things I really desire to do.  How about you what would you like to accomplish?

Preparing my Winter reading list


I have been thinking about what books I would like to read as we approach the winter months. It is my custom to read for information, not pleasure, it’s how I am wired.
But I am going to turn over a new leaf; and read something for the pure enjoyment of it. Since I am not accustomed to this philosophy, I would appreciate some suggestions!
