I think I never responded to this, so here goes. It's getting pretty short
1) Walk the entire Appalachian trail
2) Hike the West Highland way followed by the Great Glen way in Scotland (16-18 day hike total.. in planning for 2013 or early 2014)
3) Go on an expedition to Everest. I'll stay at base camp though. But I wanna see that thing !
4) Live longer than my dad.
5) Be able to afford a multi-acre property to retire on
I love to hike.. here's a quick pic my wife took last week, without my knowledge obviously, during our vacation in my favorite spot in the whole world. Note the wooden walkways. It's actually an area of marshes or what the English calls "moors". 30 years ago, you had to hop from dry spot to dry spot to make it through these. Now they put in some wooden walkways on the hiking paths. Love that place ;-)
Just a view of "De Hoge Venen" in Belgium
