Been on a Helicopter
Been to the opposite side of the country

Gone Snow Skiing - would love to
Gone skinny dipping outdoors - I'm kind of sad to say no, but I'm still young! I've got time!

yea! This was fun to read. At least for me. . you need to make it down to the lake for the 4th. . we might work on that Skinny Dipping - very exhilerating! Before the kids get too big to remember or be embarassed.

This is great -- I can't wait to read the rest of them!!

Oh, and sorry about the Bulldogs. And while I'm proud that Tech is ranked #7 I know it's mainly because we didn't play. I am a realist, after all.

I'm pretty sure we accompanied each other on many missions to the Taco Bell freshman year, what with it being 45 seconds' drive from our apartment! I legitimately remember counting quarters before going one night.
