Packing

Started the packing process today for our upcoming trip.  When we depart Henderson next Thursday, December 17th, will be flying to Washington Dulles Airport.  The entire family will be coming to South Riding, Virginia to spend the holiday season at the home of Curt and Maria Cornell (our son and daughter-in-law).  Our daughter, Stephanie and here family (Andy, Zoe and Josh) will be flying to Virginia on two different flights on two different days.  Eventually, everyone will be in Virginia for Christmas.  We are looking forward to seeing Lance and Marisa (grandchildren).

Back to packing....It's always fun to try to remember to pack what you might need.  Since we will be gone for 73 days in two different climates, packing the right clothing will be interesting.  Hopefully we won't over-pack!  And of course we have a few Christmas gifts that will need to be carried on the airplane.  Tried to send as many presents as possible to Virginia ahead of time via UPS.
