The days leading up to any vacation are hectic... But for a long vacation they seem to be especially so. My goal was to approach Saturday, day of departure in a calm, organized and very sane manner... So far, I'm a bit off the mark... But there is still time to arrive at Saturday walking... Rather than coming in hot at 1000mph... But as my sister Kim said with a bemused tone after I told her of my plan,..."uh-huh... But that's how you live every moment of your life". Sigh... She may be somewhat correct.
I'm now at the point of checking local weather not just to know temperature ranges for packing purposes, but for the actual dates that I will be there. So far, they are predicting 40-70f... Which for me is perfect traveling weather... Now if the rain just doesn't dominate, it should be amazing.
Speaking of packing, this trip is requiring a lot of gear! Binoculars, go pro, camera, cycling clothes and shoes, flashlight, bug spray, swimsuit, shorts, new waterproof hiking boots... And the list goes on...I typically pride myself on packing light, but this trip is going to be far from that... Ooh welll, I've got a schedule packed with adventure... And adventures take gear.
Just a couple more days of heads down work and late night calls... I've been planning this trip since May... But anticipating it for years... It has been on my list for a very long time, and I am thrilled the time has finally arrived... Almost
Woohoooo!
