Well isn’t packing for a big trip just the most fun thing you can do short of pouring acid into your eyes.
If you are like me, you start off convinced that this time you will take only the necessities, forget the ‘’just in cases and totally disregard the ‘but imagine ifs’. Reality is, you end up with so much stuff to pack into an impossibly small area, that you throw the hands in the air and almost reconsider the entire venture. The swear jar fills at an alarming rate.
Then your significant other walks in………
Call me old fashioned, call me unable to accept change, call me whatever you will. Let me tell you however, that men and women just don’t pack the same! Women have an incredible ability to find a spot for that little thing that only she knows you will need. Men, on the other hand, have a desperate need for that little thing to be able to be located within the first hour of searching a fully loaded car. My experience is that it is not common the two packing philosophies mesh in beautiful harmony.
With that said, Puma is now almost fully packed. Each piece of stuff has its own hidey hole. The mess that was the shed floor is but a distant memory and adventure beckons within just a few short hours.
None of this means I won’t wake tomorrow morning, bounce out of bed at 2am, race to the shed and pack that one tool that I know I’ll never need in a pink fit.
But what if I do need it?
Great start to the trip! What’s on top? I want to see the inside packed as well! I bet G has the best spot for her hairdryer!! I look forward to following your adventures!

Oh Denise, you do not want to see the inside! I am told I still have to find rom for not one but two toiletries bags. The big one and the normal size one. And then there is mine as well. At least noting will have room to rattle
I can believe that! You need to get a bigger vehicle!! Ha ha!
Hooray!!! All packed and raring to go. Woohoo. Have a great time and I’ll look forward to posts when you can (and when I can too). I’m soooo excited for you.
