So I have a blog....

My husband has a blog.  My brother has a blog.  So I guess I need to have a blog.  I will post my thoughts from time to time as things seem important.  I may even respond to my husband's blog with thoughts of my own.  That is actually what prompted me to start this in the first place.

You see - he just posted (tongue in cheek I might add) about how we have to pack when we travel.  I admit I miss the days when we could just pack a couple of small bags and go.  Now when we go - even for a weekend we have two suitcases, two pillows and knee pillows, and two backpacks - usually carrying our electronic gear such as computers, mp3 players, speakers etc.  When we go camping if my brother goes with us we are lucky to fit everything into our Honda and still have room for the three of us.  (We have yet to tie anyone or anything to the roof, but it has been close...).  Three suitcases (or duffel bags) three sleeping bags, camping pads, pillows, camp stove, wood for the fire, our small plug in cooler (or large ice chest), paper bags with food and water.  And that is if we are cabin camping at a KOA!  The one time we tent camped we had three blow up mattresses, and a couple of lanterns to add to all that.  Anyway - it is not possible to pack light...even if I didn't pack a sweatshirt.

More later....
