Registered. Just came back from an eight-month backpacking trip. Looking for something a little more unique though. :)

#22If you've got something that I can do with a wife, a 6-year-old, and that won't make me lose my job or blow through my savings, I'm interested. Otherwise, I'd just be reading fantasy.

No, seriously. I'm giving away my stuff, have already found a sailboat, and am preparing to sail from Chicago to New Zealand with my wife, where I'll continue my IT career and we'll have a kid or two. I'm 30, my wife is 29.
You can have any adventure you want; just decide to do it.

Hi there, I am still mapping out the 100 different adventures and plan on having a range spanning a bunch of skill and difficulty levels.

I think you might do well with the "100 Adventures To Take Your Wife and Child On". There are many adventure type books out there (none as good as your's will be, of course!), but most of us married-with-kids types will pass them up as we'll automatically decide its not relevant to us (and the lucky few without kids may already have bought the other books!).
Selling "the dream" to people with kids is something few try, and it's a very large market.
