Packing Day!


Today is packing day.
For our travels we will each have one suitcase for clothing and other personal items. While it is still technically summer here in Austin, we will be traveling till mid November and we will be in some states where it will feel more like fall.  There may even be a few places where we could say, "Winter is coming." Because of that, we might need a few warmer pieces of clothing.  Here is the list of what I packed in my suitcase today.  This has been a work in progress and I guess we'll see if I made the right choices. When we return in November, we will reevaluate and go from there.

In my bag I have packed...
1 long sleeve t-shirt
2 yoga pants
4 t-shirts
2 work out shorts
1 sweatshirt (Rexstrong hoodie)
3 workout tanks
2 regular tops
2 tanks
3 sports bras
1 regular bra
3 shorts
10 pairs of underwear
10 pairs of footie socks
1 pair of boot socks
3 pairs of slipper socks
1 hat
1 scarf
1 pair of jean capris
1 pair of jeans
1 pair of dress pants
2 dress shirts
1 light sweater
1 pair of pjs
2 pairs of flip flops
1 pair of sandals
1 pair of tennis shoes
1 pair of rain boots
1 bag of personal hygiene items
a couple of 2 person travel games, including a deck of cards

We will also have a bag that will hold our electronics, books, and other materials.  I have packed a sheet, 2 beach towels and 2 throw blankets in case we get somewhere that requires bringing your own bedding.  I also have a laundry bag. We'll take a few pillows and LW is taking 1 bowling ball and his golf clubs.
That's pretty much it. Everything else we have placed in storage or given away. Now it's time to see if we made the right choices.  Anything we decide we don't need can be sent home or left behind.  We can always buy anything we feel we forgot.

Leaving in the a.m.
