40 Before 40 Bucketlist : The Home Stretch

Since I am heading into the last bit of my 30’s I thought it was time for a 40 Before 40 recap. I have revised the list a little bit because a few of them stemmed around a trip to NYC that I decided to delay for another cruise and because there was a lot of travel originally planned. Scott was in a car accident in the spring of 2016 which really put a stop to our travel plans. He’s alright now and we are getting our travel game back on but it would be impossible to have done all the things I was hoping to do. So over the last year I have modified it to more realistic goals. Let’s take a look at the list and my progress so far!
