Kind of off the beaten track, very rural, but I have always liked L.I.W. and decided to go through there on the way back home from Mitchell SD. I can say I've been there but to tell you the truth, probably will not do it again. Here is a website about it. http://www.ingallshomestead.com/index.html.

I took Katherine, when she was little, to the top of a lighthouse when we were in England. It was rather scary. The last leg is straight up! Very cool speaking engagement! Congratulations! My goal for the week is to send you a sheet of interview questions. :)I hope you are doing well. You are more than welcome to come to our cabin sometime…We can stop at on the Wilder home on the way.

Italy and Hawaii are on the list for travel 2. Be a published author! 3. I'm piggybacking on #5 --- the zamboni is just COOL! 3b.

And Patty, have you seen the homestead in DeSmet? What's it like? And I echo what Joni says...Malice is great (even if I can't get a sit down meal with MHC :) ) :) Good ones, Shel!

I didn't know who she was and was happiy chatting away, when someone else came in and did the fangirl thing. I did pretty much dissolve right there. So, yes, keep Malice on your list, I promise you'll have a great time when you do make it there! (Barbara might just show up.)

I too would like to visit a light house but I want a haunted one. If you go to Walnut Grove, you for sure have to go to South Dakota and see De Smet and the homestead. But in the summertime as it is very difficult to visit in the winter. I too have few states left I would like to visit, mostly the northeast, especially in the fall. And Alaska. I would like to do Disney World in FLA. England, over seas. And Egypt but everyone tells me not to go. So I would also absolutely love to meet Barbara, as I am a huge fan too.

Go to Malice. Up until I met Julie Hyzy, that was "Go to Bouchercon" but she convinced me Malice is better, lol. #2. Travel - there's too many places I want to see to list them all so I'll just lump it all into one. #3. This one's more in the realm of fantasy than bucket list. I want to meet Barbara Mertz/Michaels/Elizabeth Peters. But since she's in her 80's, lives far away from me, and probably doesn't do book tours anymore, I'm guessing that one's not going to happen. Might actually be a good thing, because I think I'd dissolve into a puddle of fangirl if I ever did meet her. #1. Go to Malice.

Can you arrange that Joni? :) Dru, I like the every state thing. I've been up and down the entire eastern coast...and then much of the midwest. I need to count and see where I'm at in terms of states still to go... Karen, okay, you just made the urge even stronger.

And Dru, just completing a bed-sized quilt would be wonderful! Paris is the most amazing city; you must go there at least once in your life. It's impossible to spend two minutes together without seeing something exquisitely beautiful; you won't know where to rest your eyes. Tuscany is another must-see, by the way.
