The Packing

Well, I leave tomorrow at 2, so today is packing day. My goal is two carry-ons, 1 for electronics and 1 for clothes. I'm sure you can guess which is the more important of the two.



See if you can spot the deck of plain old playing cards hidden among the gadgetry.



Sometimes you need a little help from a friend.


The world's most efficient way to pack clothes, and they don't get wrinkled...much.

Unfortunately, I have 7 hours of cramped boredom tomorrow and only 2 and half hours of battery life on my laptop. Nonetheless, two and half hours of Firefly and Civ4, 2 books - The 4-hour Work Week and Hood, Sandman Preludes and Nocturnes, and of course the elusive deck of cards should keep me occupied for the majority of the journey. Plus, if all else fails, there's Skymall.

Taylor & Kevin Waz up?? New Z. Looks outrageous. I wish I was with you guys . Well, I am in spirit. The car looks good .If it runs as good as it looks you got a great deal. You guys take good pics. they come out great.But Theses no way that New Z. is nicer than Brandon /Tampa Fl. I mean who wants to look at Mts. with big ugly trees or overlook a city at night ,all lit up ,when you could be home watching TV & playing computer games.Comme on do you really think you can fool us into believing its nice over there.I think not. But I'll go along with the charade for now so keep sending those pictures & we'll make believe that its really pretty over there & a great way to spend some spare time. Love To You Both Dad / Uncle Dad
