I made a post about this too, but I figured this would be more accessible and easier to keep track of for anyone wanting to see how my list is going!
When I decided to make the list, I’d already done a lot of things I’d seen on other’s lists like bungee jumping, sky diving, roller coasters, road trips, etc, so the list was a little hard to compile. Its at a nice even “50″ right now, but I may add to it as time goes on.

**UPDATE** I’ve got my tickets to cross off #31 from my list! U2 in October!!
Although I can’t promise you will be successful with #1, you would be in the most likely place to do so if you come visit me!
And if you do make it out here, you will definitely be able to cross off #40 and both Maryland and Virginia from #33. Plus, you could very easily accomplish #7, #8 and #13 while in DC.
Completing 4 items, decreasing your state tally, and increasing the likelyhood of crossing off your #1…you better cash in your Christmas gift soon, mister.
