We're taking our first stab at backing our bags tonight. As I told a friend today...the rules for packing light are simple:

1. Lay out the items you want to pack.
2. Take half the stuff away.
3. Pack the rest.

With just a few days left, I have a few things left to clean up. Going to the travel clinic tomorrow is the most important one. Leave it to me to slack off on that duty.
