Matthew Cullen's Previous Bucket List Versions
My bucket list in its current format can be found on this page. However, I wanted to share the previous lists I have had, since there have been significant additions to the list over the last 20 years. The lists below can be seen as a timeline of sorts to help give context to when items were added. Keep in mind my list is always a work in progress. You may notice there are some items below that are not on my current list. While I wanted to complete these items at some point, I don't think they are important enough to be a priority or I really decided that I don't want to do them anymore.
