I like the small space they take up and it is easy to glance at them and remember the cool places I've visited recently.Mitch Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05003214337172183828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-211760826939639921.post-55727445267154782012021-04-23T11:26:53.000-07:002021-04-23T11:26:53.000-07:00P.S.

As far as new experiences go, my walking bucket list had a goal of walking in all 51 U.S. capital cities (and touring as many of the Capitol buildings as I could). I finished that goal in 2020 in Helena, Montana! It took me seven years to get to all of them!<br /><br />I only have 48 pages of bucket list left. Some pages can be deleted because I have crossed out items still on my list so I can see my progress.

Thank you for leaving a comment on my bl...Hi Mitch,<br />Thank you for leaving a comment on my blog. It led me to your blog. <br /><br />I collect souvenir pins (or some call them hat pins). Being an RVer, I do not want to collect something big. My pin collection is displayed on quilted hanging fabric wherever we have room on our walls in our home-base manufactured home. I collect them as a reminder of all the cool places we've been, and also the collection contains the AVA: America's Walking Club pins that I have earned throughout 28 years of doing the club walks around the U.S.<br /><br />When we lived in a large house, I collected art fish to hang on the walls of a particularly large bedroom with a vaulted ceiling. The bedroom was painted a medium blue and the fish looked cool hanging in the water-colored room. Now that we live in a single-wide manufactured home, those fish stare down at you in both of our bathrooms. LOL.<br /><br />And good on you for trying new things. Got to keep those brain synapses firing!<br /><br />https://travelbug-susan.blogspot.com<br /><br />TravelBug-Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01974719934652737928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-211760826939639921.post-8053767604040859752021-04-21T18:26:42.695-07:002021-04-21T18:26:42.695-07:00Yes, a good variety.

PS You should only eat sardines in private and especially not on enclosed public transportation, such as the London subway. Think picnic! That’s the voice of experience speaking.

My husband once scolded me for taking sardine sandwiches (prepared like a tuna salad) to work, saying, "Geez, you work in a health unit not a lumber camp!"
