What excellent goals! When you make your travels, I hope you share pictures. :)
Thanks, Berthold, but I'm afraid a European tour is only a dream.
I want to live to see my 100th birthday, too. May all of your other dreams come true as well.
Wonderful thought, Lydia.
What a wonderful list, Patrick! Here's wishing you fulfill them all.
Thanks you, Mary
Great goals, especially the travel. I'm hoping to go back to Scotland later in the year. The Highlands are stunning.
Lucky you, Tanith.
