Working my way towards a wet suit

Still can't do it-so I'm switching gears and taking a riding lesson.....English.  Tight breeches and boots-maybe that will get comfort levels up for the wet suit and the great white shark...LOL.

Good for you!!!  That will be an awesome experience for the "nature" girl in you!!!

English riding lesson...hmmm...cherio..pip..pip..and all that rot...what fun!!! Me...I want to swim with the dolphins. I think there are places..Florida maybe ?  that will let you do that. Costs big bucks but it is on my Life List. A girl can dream can't she? Anybody else have a list of things they want to experience before they die...tell..tell. ~Lisa~ (ilovemylife)

You can do a dolphin swim in Mexico for like 50 bucks-but the ones in Florida are several hours long.  They also do shark swims where you go into the aquarium with the sharks-but that would be cool cause you'd know exactly what sharks were in there and that all were harmless.

I have reserved the right to switch over to a western saddle if I'm just not happy, but I'll give it a go.

Other things I'd like to do:

Swim with the sharks

Go on one of those small boat "cruises" where you just sail around for a week on someone else's boat.

If I could, I'd spend a month in either Australia or Africa.  I've looked at shorter trips, but in order to really spend time there, I think either place would take a good month.

I'd like to get closer to wild alligator's than a cruise boat.

Next spring I AM going to show my dog in the breed ring-that's something I've always wanted to do. 

I'd like to go on a horse-backpack trip-but I want to ride and take pictures and someone else will do the cooking and cleaning up.  I think there's a couple of "working" ranches where you can go a dude cattle drive, but working cows doesn't do much for me....(but I'll drive 3 hours to let my dog chase sheep).

I'd like to drive across the country from one end to the other with a dog and my camera and computer to write about it. 

That sounds very cool.  You have such varied and interesting interests!

Hey, Debra, when Jim took me sea dooing I had to wear a wet suit.  The bad new is, I was very self conscious, the good new is it holds everything in and he said I looked great !  So, no fear my friend, if I can do it you can !
