One more sleep - She Said

We're leaving tomorrow on the 8am ferry.  Island people know that you don't actually start your vacation until you take the two hour ferry trip over to the mainland to get to where you gotta go to get outta here.  It's not living on the edge by any means.  Patience is our virtue. (not likely)
Andy and I are packed - women will kick me out of the women club for the minimalistic packing.
1 skirt
1 sundress
1 bathingsuit
1 bikini ( reserved for a beach where women are equally whale like - typically a non resort type beach)
5 under things - quick wash and dry
3 pairs of socks
3 shorts
1 pair of yoga pants
3 tops
1 pair of suede moccasins - true mocs, real deer hide and no soles.  Comfy, soft and bendy - perfect for long flights and dry weather.

This all fits into a small reuseable grocery bag with room to bring stuff home in.... To be continued, we are setting up these blogs.

Cont...
Small toiletry bag
1 sleeping roll
1 sleeping bag
1 Personal sized coffee mug/thermos
Camp cookware set - Bugaboo Camper Cookset for 2 - purchased for this trip and future trips.
Sony headset - so I can ignore e.v.e.r.y.o.n.e. /side eyes Andy.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite  - new to our electronic gadget family.  Testing out how this low priced gizmo does for our typical needs.  (my 3 year old iPad will stay safe at home for this trip)

That's my bag on the right.. the lumpy looking one.  Approximate weight is 21 lbs fully packed.

Our Packs we got for an amazing deal at Atmosphere as well as the Bugaboo campset and a bunch of miscellaneous things.  I don't think Andy and I could possibly rave more about what a superior store this place is compared to other outdoor stores in our area.  The service is fantabulous, they have pretty much everything you need and the price is usually the lowest even after price shopping.  By all means, this is our go to store for outdoor gear and equipment.
(said with as earnest a face you can get for someone that goes out into the wild maybe three times a year.. I will however survive a zombie apocalypse with how much gear we have though.)


And yes, I'm guilty of more than a few run-on sentences.
such is life. :)

That's it for now, I have to finish 'cleaning' before we leave and go do some errands quick.
