This sounds like plenty "To-do" for old retired folk, one is far past OBE. I hope you've enjoyed reading my Bucket List. You may wish to formally make your own.
Oh yes, over the years my list and things to consider have changed. Example, I've dropped visiting the South Pole, Antarctica, we were close enough by sailing around the Cape Horn and then up to The Falcon Islands. Also Ireland and Italy already frown on my age visitors for driving. And we've been to all 50 states already here at home.
See you all, call me, we might visit you or go along cruising with you.

- Our writing assignment for today was to write a To-Do "List Poem". For me that verges on an Oxymoron as for sure my list isn't very poetic sounding.
