I've already cleaned out two closets so I am ahead of the game in the cleaning department. 

I want to:  work in the garden and nurture my FLOCK.  CAMP.  HIKE.  CANOE.  CAVE.  Pick and arrange bouquets of flowers.  Go to Farmer's Market.  Sit on the veranda and drink mint juleps.  Polish my toe nails.  Jump into a cool pool and catch my breath.  Watch a sunset and conversely, a sunrise.  Study the embers of a campfire and figure out what it is saying to me.  Go to the fair and eat a pickle, ear of corn, pineapple ice cream and nibble an elephant ear.  Watch the fireworks.  Kiss someone while lightening bugs light up the night.  Lay across a bed and doze while the oscillating fan strokes me with a breeze washing over my body. 
Walk in the sand and wade into the water.  This will most likely involve a LAKE.  Throw a stick into the water and hold my breath as Chelsea retrieves.  Stand by and scrunch my eyes as she shakes.  Breath deep and ignore the rivulets of sweat running down my back. 

Recently I was told that a man I know has cancer with a short time to live.  He went out and bought a convertible and said  to his wife:  "let's go!"  I guess if it came down to it, my sand pail list and my bucket list wouldn't be very different.  I want to spend time with those I love. 
I've also always wanted to take a hot air balloon ride and travel overseas.  Other than that...
What is on your list this summer?
