Packing challenge

---

I managed to drag myself away from some great spring skiing and am now in Calgary trying to pack and tidy up some paperwork. By the time I finished filing the family's tax returns I'll need a vacation.

But what to pack?? I borrowed my son's backpack; it looks so small but feels so heavy and it has no wheels! The travel guide books alone require a travelling secretary. I'll take my deck shoes for sailing and walking shoes from the MEC. I'm also taking the cotton pant and shirts that I bought last year on a shoping spree with my daughter. I needed some "snappy casual" for a wedding on the beach at the Wickinninnish Inn on Vancouver island. That will be fine for Egypt, but a little skimpy for April in foggy London. Add raincoat and sweater. Add underwear and 2 pair of socks. There that was easy!!

Must run to the MEC to buy the shoes.K
