1000 Places to see before you die...

A non-Eldersburg post....

Was surfing the ever growing TV channel list last night and came across the show 1000 Places to See before you die on the Travel Channel.. Only watched the last 10 minutes or so but it got me thinking...

What places do I want to see before I make my last step on this planet... Life is short and as with most goals.. i find it good to put goals in writing..

Places I would like to see (in no particular order):

1. Amderstdam - if only 10% of the stories I've heard are true...this place would be a lot of fun
2. Roswell - UFO mecca
3. Moscow - standing in Red Square would just be cool
4. Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station
5. North Korea
6. Space - think I was born 50 years to early for this one..

there are many more but these come to my mind first..

Googled my blog the other day and came across this page: http://www.eldersburgtoday.com/

This seems like a great page for local news, weather, events, etc... but I want the world to know that I was here first... well, at least, my blog was online first..

Now only if we can get a Best Buy....
