I laughed out loud when I saw the title of the book, 101 Places To See Before You’re 12.
There are simply too many publications out there telling us all the things we need to do before we retire or die. The fact that someone has so dramatically lowered the age by which we need to experience certain activities makes me feel like I’ve already missed out on so much.
Sure, the first 12 years of my life were pretty active but I never made it to many of the places listed in the book, such as prisons, forts, ghost towns, or even a subway. Oh man, am I a complete failure!
You can bet I’m buying a copy for whenever I have children so that I can drag them kicking and screaming to all 101 places.
