My Bucket List
Hello everyone. Today I can scratch piloting a plane off my list. It’s called ‘Sky Surfing’ on a delta wing trike plane, and I flew it this morning over Clearwater Beach before coming to work. Awesome views including seeing porpoise, sting rays and hammerhead sharks. Whoot-woot! What’s on your Bucket List?

You are a very brave woman. I have too vivid an imagination to even attempt such a thing. You now have awesome memories to last a lifetime. Bravo, Candace!

Hello everyone – I want to share my latest Bucket List adventure with you and post some photos. I actually jumped out of a perfectly good airplane at 18,000 ft. The usual jump is around 8,000 ft so you can get an idea of how cra-cra this Bucket was. I went tandem and fell 13,000 ft before the chute opened; that’s falling 175 per second for over a minute. It was incredible, I hope you enjoy the pics – I’ll never do this again lol!
OMG I did it!
Wait! Can I get back on?
Look – I’m flying 🙂
No words for this one!!!
Pasquale, my hero…back on earth.

I had forgotten that I took flying lessons when I was 16. Had to quit before I got to solo, due to several things, money, at that time the airport where the lessons were given, was so far away;, now with highways the airport is not that far away…you know good roads now.
And 40 some years ago,I got my lessons from a female pilot. Sad to say at that time, that’s just about all female pilots were allowed to do. Certainly weren’t able to fly commercial planes.
How fun to be a woman in this day and age, and be able to do all these wonderful things!
And to be an inspiration for others both male and female. GO CANDACE!

Knocked off a mini-bucket before work this morning. (SUP) Stand Up Paddleboarding on Tampa Bay. Gorgeous day, no wind thankfully and I kept my hat dry 🙂 This is a really good workout that I can feel all over already.
Who’s planning to check off their buckets and what’s on your list?
-
Wow! Very cool! 🙂

THE VIEW IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND PEACEFUL FROM UP THERE . HSN CANDANCE I WOULD HAVE LOVED IT :heart:
-
What a BRAVE woman you are 🙂 ……. maybe if it had some sides on it LOL But, seeing the porpoise, sting rays and sharks would of been breath-taking !

Candace – how awe inspiring and super cool are you!! I’ve never thought to put that on my bucket list but I do admire you for doing this. You rock!:womanlol:

OMG!!!! Beautiful view! Awesome and daring! I’m afraid to ask what other adventures you have on your bucket list. The most exciting thing on mine is eating an entire banana split with loads of whipped cream and nuts. :womantongue:

Candace,
Thank you so much. That really is on my Bucket List. Everything will be done once I
master the fear. I know it’s all in my head. TWA once was wanted me to be a
Stewardess and I was flying then. I have flown a lot. Now I have this block
that is stopping me from getting on a plane. Long story:womanlol:
I don’t fear much but if I lick this look out world.:smileyhappy:

Candace,
You are very brave. That looks like so much fun. What’s on my bucket list?
Believe it or not to get back on a plane. Yeah, something happened years ago
and I have not flown in years. My husband and I do a lot of driving:smileyhappy:
When I do fly again everyone will know.:smileyhappy:
You look so happy:smileyhappy:
