Packing, Packing and More Packing

We're down to 3 more days before we move on down South.  I'm much further behind than I'd hoped to be, but that really doesn't surprise me.  


Part of my income is derived from sewing.  I make educational costumes for the Denver Museum of Nature and Science (and anyone else who would like some.)

Consequently, my sewing area is very important to me.  Packing it up was difficult.  I had to sort through my supplies, deciding what I might need in the short term versus what I'd be willing to drive 20 hours each way to fetch.  Dave reminded me that I'll be back this way at Thanksgiving, so that made it a bit easier, but I still had a lot of thinking to do.  Not only for the sewing room, but also for my office.  Which supplies do I have to have?  Which parts of the exhibit development do I need to have hard copies of?  I've spent many more days in these areas of packing than I'd planned.  I secretly hoped to be leaving tomorrow, but I was pretty sure that we'd take the full extra week.  And we will be.  


Our flatbed trailer is all ready to take the motorcycles.  I'm very pleased with the set-up Dave has created.  We have e-track running down the sides and center of the trailer with the wheel chocks between and our tool box at the front.  I'll be towing this trailer.  I sure hope my little motor will handle it.
