Years ago, when I listed out the lifetime dreams I wanted to chase, completing my journal was one of those dreams. I have since completed it, started another which will itself be finished in the next few weeks. But I thought about collecting a representation of all the writing that I do- besides just the pages of my journal.
I told myself it would be neat to collect all the pens that I go through as I write. I thought if I could collect say 500 pens, surely that would take a lifetime to complete. To be exact it took twelve years. Yesterday I used my 500th pen to complete the collection, and sitting back looking at them all I am a bit astonished at what 500 pens looks like when you put them all together. That’s a lot of writing…
Those who know me know that I will only write with a Pilot G-2 pen because of their quality and consistency- it plays into my OCD. Those who know me, also know I’ll also build some sort of a display case to showcase all of these which is coming after a few other projects get completed.
Thanks Pilot pens- best pens ever! How about a sponsorship?!?!

BUCKETLIST: WINTER
I finally checkmarked "capture a true winter" off of my bucketlist. This was in Fairbanks AK at Pioneer Park. The streetlight lit this scene up close to midnight.
Carn Galver Mine. The name Carn Galver means rockpile at the lookout place. There is a small pumping and a whim engine house on the St Just - St Ives coastal road (B3306). The mine was worked until 1878. It was restored twenty ago by the National Trust. This mine was never really productive and suffered from drainage problems.
Carn Galver Mine appears to have operated 1851–59, and 1871–77, 1882, becoming in 1907 Bosigran Consols
Gurnard's Head copper mine was operating in the 1830's using a 20 inch wide water wheel. Porthmeor Valley - contains many mining remains, including water wheel pits and circular ore washing sites Carn Galver - near the hamlet of Rosemergy, was part of Morvah and Zennor United. It was a very wet mine, and the pump drew water from 780 feet down, with a second engine used to raise and crush the ore. It stopped working in 1878
1871 it employed seventy miners, with an adit 70 fathoms below the surface and a shaft sunk to 130 fathoms. The ore was crushed by a compound steam engine, fitted with two pneumatic stamps. The mine was pumped out by steam power.
In the top #3 of the Rome-bucketlist is the ancient city. That includes Palatine Hill, Roman Forum and the Colosseum. I am particularly intrigued by the extremely rich and often bloody history and will try to share some of it. But these are all classic tourist attractions. What local diamonds did you visit and should not be missed? #localgem (bij Colosseum)
No doubt! #TorresLatinoAmericana #tower offers an exceptional night view of the #Mexico City. You can easily spot heavy traffic on the roads, huge Christmas trees 🎄, and various museums across the city. #Amazingview.

I had seen these Mille Crêpe Cakes all over the internet and had to try making (and eating) one myself. I had no idea what I was in for: www.suziethefoodie.com/vanilla-mille-crepe-cake/
February's #nationalconservationlands, BLM Winter Bucket List, Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument in Arizona for Its Dark Sky Park Status
The Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument is a vast remote landscape where the only nighttime light comes from the stars. The International Dark Sky Association (IDA) recognized the unspoiled quality of its pristine and breathtaking night skies with an official IDA designation as “Parashant International Night Sky Province,” joining an elite group of other international Night Sky Places around the globe.
Twenty-two organizations throughout the southwestern United States supported the Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument’s nomination for IDA’s “Dark Sky Park” status, including the scientific community. Its pristine “Gold Tier” night sky view creates prime research and discovery opportunities.
The scenery continues to impress during the day at this rugged corner of northern Arizona, with views stretching from the lower portion of the Grand Canyon to the pine clad peaks of Mount Trumbull and Mount Logan Wilderness Areas. Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument is jointly managed by the Bureau of Land Management and the National Park Service.

There’s nothing quite as spectacular as seeing a 200,000 pound southern righthand whale fly into air so effortlessly, exposing its whole body.
It was pure magic to see this just a few meters away from me!
Have you been whale watching before?

Lies Baas 12/05/2014 Today was a very special day!
As one of the biggest surprises I could ever wish for~I saw the Dalai Lama today.
Walking around with my friend Irma, minding our own business we saw people demonstrating against His Holiness in The Hague. So I asked a policeman what was going on. He told me to step into the square of het Binnenhof and have a look!
Too bad I didn't have my real camera with me...but who cares...I saw the Dalai Lama...the only person on my Bucket List!! Honestly..I cried a little.
I am in the process of replacing a few items on my Lifetime Dreams list, and one of the new bucket list items is to spend time at 100 waterfalls.
I have discovered the beautiful and enchanting experience of not just seeing a waterfall, but sitting next to it, hiking in and around it- feeling the breath it pours out. So I don't want to just go see 100 waterfalls... I want to go experience 100 waterfalls (two on the completed list so far!).

April #conservationlands15 #bucketlist: Bodie Hills, California, for Wildflowers, Wildlife and One-of-a-Kind Ghost Town!
California’s Eastern Sierra region is a dramatic transition zone between the snowcapped granite spires of the Sierra Nevada and the endless sagebrush covered uplands of the Great Basin. A visit at the right time of year will reward visitors with a diversity of wildflowers.
One great wildflower viewing area is just north of Mono Lake and east of Yosemite in the rolling Bodie Hills – hills being an understatement since they top out at over 10,000 feet! Because of their high elevation, wildflower blooms are later here than much of California – typically arriving in May-June on the lower slopes and into July on the highest peaks. Several back roads traverse the area and offer access to view the displays of phlox, penstemmon, and paintbrush to name a few of the many wildflower species. More than 100,000 acres of BLM lands cover most of the Bodie Hills and include several wilderness study areas.
This year’s bloom promises to be early and short due to the dry winter across much of California. However, even if you miss the peak bloom, there is no shortage of things to see in the area. Bodie State Park is the site of the best-preserved ghost town in California, and arguably in the U. S. Wildlife viewers can see antelope, mule deer, and if lucky, get a glimpse of a sage grouse. If you visit later, around early October, crisp clear nights will turn the scattered aspen stands to gold, giving a second opportunity to see the Bodie Hills in color.
