27.5

I have found out that there ain't no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them.  ~ Mark Twain

I am 27.5 hours away from being in the car for 11 hours with my husband. I can't think of anyone I'd love to be trapped with more.

I have not, however, been able to crack my cell phone for use as a modem for my laptop. I've researched the tethering process in depth and have come to one conclusion; Fifty bucks goes to the first person who makes it easy for me/does it for me in the next 27.5 hours. I really wanted internet for the trip. A solid thumbs down to that.

I am about 93% packed, and am 100% certain we will be headed to a local store shortly after our arrival, because we always forget something.  Even though I think I may have conquered the packing process, I'm probably wrong.

I usually am amazed at the amount of luggage a family with children takes on vacation, not the amount my husband and I take on vacation. For our 6 day vacation,I have 2 suitcases, a small bathroom dufflebag, and a medium sized shoe dufflebag; I'm furious. I tried to cut out all the non-sense, and I did. Our cabin has a washer/dryer, so I was able to take less clothing. I still can't believe the amount of luggage. Oh well, I'm still certain we're going to enjoy ourselves.

Also, thank goodness we have an over sized SUV. Just sayin'.
