You'd best slow down a little now, but not stop of course. It's a good job you don't have to make a list of the things you left out though isn't it?

I love lists! I love the idea of an adventure list! I need to do this! :) Thanks! Voted up and awesum! :)

That is heartbreaking! Is that why you's had the big worldwide travel this year? My thoughts are with you, and Ill get sharing your page- I have some arty types who may have a use for some pics xxx

Yes , Because I cannot get new knees before I am unable to walk and he is getting weaker, coughing more so this is to spend quality time together before it is too late .
;'( Awwh! Well, I'v tweeted it, and Ill be sure to mention to people I know who are looking for stock images. Graphic designer type people, so would need the unlimited version- yay! I keep forgetting that America has private health care- over here, knee replacements are done free :( Emigrate to Scotland? lol x
