    What have you done already and what would still be on your list (in terms of activities...nothing like "score with Paris Hilton" is meant)?

    For me (none of those are probably really spectacular, but...):


    Done:

    - Climbing/Rappeling
    - Diving, getting PADI open water diver certification
    - Sailing, getting license to sail a boat
    - Paragliding
    - Caving
    - Travel around the world
    - Visit a Rockets game

    To Do:

    - Parachuting
    - Bungee jumping (perhaps, not sure I want to do it)
    - Learning how to snowboard
    - Better learning how to ski
    - Learning how to windsurf/kitesurf properly
    - Getting a license to steer a motorized boat
    - Visit a Rockets championship series game

    What I probably won't do, but would be cool:

    - Free climbing
    - Getting a pilot license

    What's your list? Any other ideas/suggestions?

    I'd like to trek a really long trail: Continental Divide Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, Appalachian Trail, Yellowstone to Yukon, Mayan Trail...whatever. Just to leave "society" for 6-12 months.
