Vacations would be so worth it if we could skip the packing part. I dread pulling out the old suitcase, and when I finally do get around to it, it takes hours to figure out what's going to accompany me on my journey.
The clothes I wear comfortably, happily every day turned to dreck as I start packing for our trip to the Pacific Northwest.
Nothing from my closet looks spiffy enough, nothing fits quite right. I always pack too much, and yet invariably I have regrets about leaving some thing necessary behind.
Packing is an imprecise science and a real stresser, and that's only the beginning of the joys of traveling these days. Follow that experience with long lines and security checks, worries about flying, concerns that something important has been forgotten and who wouldn't need a vacation?
Wish us luck. The weather forecast is seasonal and sunny and we'll be visiting new places. I'll be back to blogging in September but first I'm going to see some mountains, some whales, a world class garden or two, and a lot of Katz. If I didn't have to pack, it would all be perfect!
P.S. It's September 13th and we've been back for over a week now. My apologies for the long break. I hope to have a story or two about the trip for you shortly as I finally get my rhythm going again. Thanks for being patient.
