I cheated a little on this list, because I have some of these items already planned... It was pretty difficult to come up with 29 'bucket list' time items to achieve in ONE year... We will see how I do! 

PS. I have a friend that thought my bucket list was meaningless... it kind of hurt my feelings, but at the same time the list is just stuff I want to do so that really is the only meaning behind it. The purpose is to keep these adventures or goals toward the front of my mind so I get them DONE. Some of the things are things other people may never do (skydive) while others are done by people everyday (milking a cow). The point is, I want to have those experiences. I am not making any implication that because I have done these things I am a better person or closer to God... I just did them (or want to do them) period.
