[Birds Away]

I will.

Hey, since there are a couple of ladies around, maybe I can get some advice. How do I convince my wife we don't need to carry everything we own with us just for a week of vacation? I may be exaggerating just a bit but the amount of stuff she is trying to pack seems excessive.

I try to pack stuff that all matches with each other. Any top can be worn with any bottoms and any shoes, etc. Also, stuff can be rinsed out in a sink, hung up, and reworn if necessary.

I can get a week's worth of clothes in one suitcase and one small bag for hairdryer, toiletries, etc.

I should've gotten you to give her some tips earlier. We decided to rent a car for the trip just to be safe but its gonna be a small car. I figure with just the two of us, that would be no problem. But now that I see the sheer volume of stuff she wants to take, I'm starting to wonder.

 

[MrsGungho]

snap is exactly right

if I had to pack lighter, I could, by doing exactly what she said.

Lunch is done....now if I can find the scope I got for the pellet gun.

Clothes aren't really the problem. They don't take too much space. There are stores less than 30 minutes from where we are staying but she still wants to pack enough food to feed a platoon. We are getting closer to empty nesters than ever but she still has a hard time planning smaller meals.

Well there ya go!!

I managed not to break my leg during a bicycle ride in France.

 

[MrsGungho]

Well that's good I guess. You didn't break your arm instead did you?

. . . You could not be Secetary of State! . . Unless you've thrown your military medals away. Then maybe we 'll over look your great sense of balance!

Secretary of State John Kerry broke his leg yesterday while riding his bicycle. I'm not sure where he was. Maybe France.
