When we packed up our small car to return to
Florida form our North Carolina trip I wanted
to bring just a few things home with me.
Larry said that NO WAY! was all that stuff
going to fit into the car. Well.....
Here we go!
Two large and two small duffel bags an
other soft stuff in the backseat
with the dog bed on top.
Add three doggies who are always happy
to go on road trips,
but this arrangement was new.
They settled in fast and slept
most of the time. Good doggies!
Small cooler, snacks, drinks, books/magazines,
phones, computers, ipod, camera, sweaters,
pillow, blanket, purse, glasses,
behind the seats...whew!
Into the trunk! Yes, I brought home over
200 golf balls,a large dough bowl,
6 lampshades, a set of Christmas dishes,
6 fall colored mugs, a Cuisinart,
all my thrift store finds (see those HERE),
two large platters, a lamp, wire basket,
misc. kitchen stuff, pantry staples,
a full large cooler.
And a partridge in a pear tree!
When Larry unloaded the car he said that he
felt like a magician that keeps
pulling things out of hat!
This was the first time that we took
the convertible to NC and it was wonderful
to drive the winding mountain roads
on those beautiful fall days with the
top down listening to a favorite CD.
See that drive HERE.
Cheers!

I got a real kick out of your packing! I am the magician packer at my house. I would suggest that you get an iPad for your reading pleasure. No more schelping books for me. For short trips, it even cuts the need for a laptop. BTW, we that can do this kind of thinking is usually the more spatial thinking of the couple! Happy Thanksgiving.

ReplyDeleteGoodness you're good! Oh Rita, what an incredible magician you are...it's not like the trunk was from an SUV! Yeah, we do that when we want our things, yeah, lol! The doggies are the cutest and they also found some soft and cozy space to travel! You cracked me up! Hugs, FABBY

Great job! Saw some eye candy in your pictures. Love the dog bed!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job packing! We recently took a road trip from here in FL to my hometown in NJ. I went a little crazy shopping there and my husband was none too happy squeezing things around his golf clubs! Hey, if the shopping is good you have to go for it, right?
