50 Nifty United States...and other lists

I was born and raised in Southern California and I'm just now realizing, some twenty two years later, that I've only been to a handful of the United States. I'm no Miss America (nor do I really care to be) but before I die, I'd like to say I've seen a fair amount of the country I spent my entire life in. So, over time I've slowly developed a list of places within the United States that I'd like to see sometime in the next 50 years. It's short, but it's a list in progress. 

• North Carolina- Bald Head Island, Cape Feare, Wilmington
• Savannah, Georgia
• Salem, Massachusetts 
• Mojave Desert
• New England

On the subject of Lists, which I love to make oh so much, I also started a life list sometime back in college. There aren't really many significant items on it-- a lot of them are everyday things I've overlooked-- but it's mostly just for fun.

1. Learn to speak another language fluently
2. Sing karaoke in front of a large crowd
3. Fall in love
4. Bowl at least a 200
5. Go to a rave
6. Get married
7. Camp out for Black Friday
8. Write a short story/book
9. Have an elaborate birthday celebration
10. Start a blog
11. See/swim under a real waterfall
12. Learn to play piano
13. Visit Versailles
14. Take a rowboat into the middle of a lake
15. Take a dance class
16. Master the art of photography
17. Take classes at OTIS.
18. Buy a photo booth for my future home
19. See a show at the Moulin Rouge in Paris

Currently working on #16.

And now for some favorites:

Places: The Village in Claremont; Maui, HI; Disneyland (I know, it's a cliche)

Foods: Popcorn, French Fries, Plain Yogurt. I couldn't live without these 3.

Music: Red Hot Chili Peppers, always will be no matter who else comes along or came along before them (although, I am a sucker for classic rock)

Movies: When Harry Met Sally & Home Alone-- still a child at heart :)

Color: Red

Accessory: My camera

Musical: I could never pick one....Grease reminds me of my childhood, The Sound of Music is a classic and personal favorite, Chicago is timeless, Rocky Horror Picture Show: no words necessary

Season: Autumn, but I do enjoy summer nights

I'll stop before this turns into a Personals Ad...

Feel free to add any suggestions for either list! What are somethings you've always wanted to do before it's too late?
