It took me
3 weeks
It made me

How I did it: Finished a nice bottle of French wine while sitting on the beach at Club Med Moorea in Tahiti and wrote a note to see who would answer. That was ocean-mailed in 1979 and so far no one has replied  Read how I did it…

pillow fight club
Reminder to self ... start an internation pillow fight club

Someone posted this and it’s about time to do an internation thing.

oh, knew there was a reason to come back and visit 43T when I got a spare moment, so here goes on my exciting update :)
the goal has been on my list since (checking) um… Feb 16, 2009
I found out about an international pillowfight day 2010 held in Tassie literally only days after it had passed ..
so, as they say, careful what you ask for… it is possible!
It’s gonna be a big year and I’m fluffing feathers, and will start researching moves.

visit bermuda
...$12 hamburger ... Downtown in Princeton, Bermuda

Take a trip to Bermuda at least once in your life. EXPENSIVE !!! Stayed at the Fairmont in South Hampton. The clothing is so strange … a full three piece business suit with dress shorts is a shocker when someone steps from behind his desk. the ocean is really spectacular on both side of the island.

do a back flip
Someone told me I couldn't do it.

Ha ! I’m 8 months short of 60 years old and I’m gonna prove I can. If you see me in a full body cast you’ll know I at least tried.
