This is Rain and let's see.....

Lived in 3 countries on 2 continents (US, Australia and now Canada)
Met the man of my dreams that I didn't even know could exist and am now collared and married to him.
Loved again when I was happy (well, I was) being single living with the monsters and the critters.
Given up my entire life to move across the continent to be with the man I love. (It's worth it!)
Raised 3 monsters to adult-hood without killing them.
See my dream band in concert before one of the members died.
Traveled all over the western half of the United States and parts of northeastern US and Eastern Australia. Now I get to start on Eastern Canada! 
Owned my own business
Taught myself crafts like knitting and crocheting

Probably not nearly as exciting as most other people but it's a start..... [;)]

The list of thing that I have done so far would be to long to list on here. I have lived a great life so far and hope to keep on living it.

I grew up next to Motown in Detroit. I met and knew a lot of the singers there. Most of the lived in the neighborhood.
I went to Elvis, Johnny Cash, Dion, Hank Williams of course the Motown Concerts. I got to talk at length with Johnny Cash, Conway Twitty and my favorite Ernest Tubb.
I was at a JFK rally in Detroit and watched him speak.
I met a lot of the old time wrestlers. Dick the Bruiser etc. My dad went to school with a lot of them and when they wrestled in Detroit they would stop over and play cards.
I have piloted an Ultra Light. I  want to own one.
I have sky dived and I have a riggers license
I have ridden in a F-15.
I have been down in a Submarine.

I have traveled all over the world.
I was on the 8th Army rifle team and took first place shooting trophies
I had a ton of old trophies I gave to the boys clubs I won in
shooting
Fishing
Bowling ( collected 20 from 1984 alone)
Bowling from on TV
Golf
Miniature golf from on TV
Football
I have owned lots of old cars. I want to find another 62 mecury monterey convertiable.
I graduated from colege at 48. Never say you can't go back.
I lived with a porn star.
I used to run numbers for one of my Uncles. My dad and his brothers used to be in the Purple Gang.
There are some things that I will leave out. Sometimes I wonder that Im still here to tell about anything.
Would I change anything. No. You live them for a reason.
