A list item that is “as American as apple pie” – like #283 “Visit the Liberty Bell”
Nina wanted to see the sun rise from the top of a mountain in one of the most beautiful places in the world, but this one was left undone. How about you? Is there some place that you want to watch the rise or set?
Nina visited the Liberty Bell, since this item was marked off her list, but I don’t really have any details about it. I’m hoping one of her friends might be able to shed some light on it.
What about you? Have you ever been to the Liberty Bell?
Even though there are Pow Wows in Phoenix a couple of times a year at the local Heard Museum, Nina left this item unchecked. Maybe she was looking for something a little less… commercial? What about you? Have you ever attended a Pow Wow and participated in any of the events?
There aren’t many “regular” people who get to attend the big award shows, and the Oscars was on Nina’s list. Have you ever attended the Oscars, Emmys, etc? What was it like to be surrounded by so many celebrities?
Nina never got the chance to spend time in New York City at Christmas time. How about you? Is it as magical as people say it is?
Nina never got to tour the Hershey Chocolate Factory. People I know who have toured it mention the smell of the chocolate as one of their strongest memories. Have you ever been there? What was you favorite part?
Nina never visited the New York Public Library building. The famous Rose Reading Room (above) looks amazing. Have you ever been there?
Wrestling alligators isn’t on may people’s bucket lists, but it was on Nina’s. Is that something you would be interested in doing? Have you ever had the chance to try it?
Since the Crazy Horse Monument construction is still in progress (began in 1948), had Nina visited it could have still been in the very early stages of construction. Have you ever seen this memorial? Maybe while you were visiting the Mount Rushmore memorial?
Nina never got the opportunity to travel stops along the Underground Railroad. Have you ever done that particular trip? Did you discover anything you didn’t know before?
