Packing up and saying goodbyes.

Cheers

Although we don't leave on our big adventure until Sept. 1st, we will be on a 3 week trip to the East Coast starting Wednesday, and then a trip to Colorado for a week. So, not much time left in SF, and not much time to pack up the apartment. We've started to pack up and since we will have house sitters staying at our place we need to leave it neat and tidy. That means the current state of chaos needs to be cleaned up. As we found when we moved into our 600 Sq Ft rental cottage - there isn't much room for boxes! Well, not if you actually want to walk around. So, today will be re-org day. When you live in a small place you spend a lot of time re-orging.

Yesterday Rich's step-mother Julie had a lovely going away party for us. She had a map marked with our stops and solicited travel tips from the guests. We got some great advice and some lovely gifts - a travel clothesline and some soap were my favorite. We intend to be doing a lot of laundry in hotel sinks!
