1. I have visited all but 7 states in the US of A. (Alaska, Hawaii, North Dakota, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Delaware.) 
2. My favorite food is popcorn...not microwave or air pop. It has to be popped in oil in an old pressure cooker.
3. My favorite instrument is the bassoon. I received a 'mini' scholarship to play it in college. (That's not really too hard to do because there are not many bassoonists.)

I too love "Go Dogs Go", but my favorite is "One Fish, Two Fish". And ditto to #15 - I love how passionate Grandma was about voting. I could probably make a comment about your other 23 random things, but I'll spare y'all from my editorials :)
Was that elephant picture taken at the Hogle Zoo? If so, we have never seen them get in the water!
I need to hear the rest of the Harrison Ford story. You keep giving me all these cliff hangers...
yes, the elephant is from Hogle Zoo. We had a a couple really awesome zoo visits a year or so ago. One day all the elephants were playing in the water right after they were fed. And another day the tiger was up and pacing around his cage. We have a picture that looks like there is nothing between him and us through the glass. It was totally awesome.
As for the cliff hangers...they may take more than a comment box...I'll work on it. ;)
p.s. *Spoiler alert* on the 'Kiss' cliff hanger...(we got married) LOL ;)
Maybe I should have Sharon tell the rest of the Harrison Ford story.
Here are a few random responses: I want to hear the Harrison Ford story too! I just knew you'd be an animal convert! I really really tried to like Papa Married A Mormon as much as you do. And, I can't wait to see what amazing things Kathryn the Journalist and Picture Framer does! BTW: this is the most visually interesting list of 25 things that I have seen so far. Love the photos.
Okay, now, spill on Harrison.
okay, i really am going to make bread RIGHT now ... i learned many things about you that i didn't know (how would i know some of those things ... we'd have to like see each other outside of the 4 clark family parties during the year =) ..) and also that i would have never guessed. fun.
