Heading South

Our marathon of packing kicked into high gear Thursday night. I fell asleep Friday morning at 2am, but Linda kept going until 4am!

Packing our belongings is just a simple scavenger hunt. Packing my home office is time consuming because I can't forget any cable. But packing clothes is the worse!

Our strategy for packing clothes is to first make sure everything we own is washed. We used to then put all the laundry away only to bring it back out and pack. Instead, we line up laundry baskets, each one dedicated to someone, and begin identifying what will be taken.

Considering we will have a washer and dryer at the house we always pack too many clothes. For example, I am taking 25 shirts or various styles, 6 cargo shorts, and more.

My job is to make sure all batteries are charged and all electronics get packed. We have one entire bag dedicated to cables!

Our plan for today is to load the van and leave this afternoon. We want to hit Harrisburg PA by 10pm.
