Bucket List - West Coast

When I began the blog I wasn't aware of all the cool things that Florida had to offer so I started doing some research and I was blown away. I made a list of all the things that I would eventually like to do with the family and add to the other section of the blog. I was going to keep this to myself and only add the items once we had done them, but I didn't want to be selfish and figured that you may want to skip ahead and do some of these things with your family before I was able to with my own.
