Hopefully, we all know how obsessive I am about lists. And Bucket Lists, in particular. The summer is such a great time for Bucket Lists because there’s so much free time to get things done! So this summer, I compiled a list, pulling some ideas from my 2011 Bucket List and then adding some fun ones on my own. Some are actually already finished or in the works, so I crossed them out.
