Luggage, Milestones, and a New Adventure

A New Adventure For Andrew
And a MAJOR MILESTONE for ME!!!!
We arrived safe and sound.
Now the real fun begins.
Andrew hits the ground running tomorrow with
a Placement Test, Dorm Check In, Campus Tour
and
Shopping Til We Drop for all the things he needs for his new abode.
For The Record....
For The FIRST TIME in my life...I packed ONE SMALL CARRY ON
Suitcase!!!!
This is opposed to 2 LARGE CHECKED IN BAGS and
ONE SMALL CARRY ON Suitcase....
And I even brought an assortment of shoes...not the usual
WIDE ASSORTMENT, none the less... I packed a variety.
This is a MAJOR MILESTONE for me.
Oh yes, this post was supposed to be about Andrew and his new
adventure. Off we go....
Are you able to pack light for a short or long trip?
I always knew I COULD do it, I just never had the NEED to...
I guess I should be thankful for the new baggage restrictions and fees
forcing me to leave my comfort zone!

Where did you put the kitchen sink? All Americans pack way too much stuff for trips. I'm guilty also and I should know better. Anyone who has ever gone backpacking for a week, learns what is important to take and what is not!

Shaunna,
Please let Andrew know that he has a home away from home if ever needs one. Becky, Ryan, Carol Ann and I are here for him.
Love, Cindy

Speaking of dorm check-in, why does the movie "Animal House" pop into my mind when Andrew is mentioned in the same sentence?
