I had a really rewarding experience taking a woodworking class last summer. This year, I had fantastic private sewing lessons. It seems like taking one class per summer is going to be a good idea. These are not epic goals typical in the nature of a bucket list, but imagine the breadth of learning you’d enjoy over the course of a lifetime.

I’ve thought about improving lots of skills in the past, so I have plenty ideas to start a list of summer classes:

• welding
• kinetic sculpture
• lighting design (theatrical)
• light design (sculptural/electrical)
• French
• Fontographer
• baking yeast breads
• wood furniture
• framing
• garment construction
• swimming
