Lee posting: Our cross-continent trip to view the fall season in the northeast is exactly one month away. We will begin by visiting our kids in Oregon and Washington, then make a one-day hop to Polson, MT, from which we head north to Canada to follow Canadian Highway 1 all the way to Nova Scotia, with side trips on the way. We will have the laptop with us, and a digital camera to record the scenery and events, which we plan to share on a regular basis thanks to wifi at the motels.
Years of experience making long trips have taught us the value of making thoughtful lists, careful packing, auto servicing, etc. A big advantage we will have this trip is that we won't have the dogs, as we have a house-sitter who will take good care of them. It is kind of amazing how much this will simplify our packing and planning.
Charlie posting: Thank goodness for sticky notes as from the main list the second stage of notes begin. Right now am working on the food box list. We are planning to curtail expenses some by picnicing and forraging along the way but there are things litk salt&pepper we will need to carry.
The travel maps came a couple of days ago so we are having fun looking for side trips. Looking at those maps it appears that we need a year to see it all. Oh well, we will be able to check off some thing on our bucket list.
