MAKING LISTS AND PREPARATIONS

I'm finished with my lists for packing.  A lot of the summer clothing that I took off of the boat just stay packed and go directly down to Texas.  The list is really for the things that can't be packed until the last minute and might be forgotten.  Most other things I pack as I think of them.  I keep a bin in the living room just for that purpose. 



I've cooked all my sausages.  The first year down south I realized that I would not be able to find decent pure pork sausages.  All the ones I tried were all very over spiced.  So, since then I have been purchasing my supply of sausages and cooking and freezing them to take with me.  I have to cook extra for this year. 



Topping up all the spices in my spice rack.  This was one of the smartest things I ever did.  After a year of coming back to Texas and finding all my spices etc. being a year old and stale and having to be thrown out, I purchased this hanging spice rack from Lee Valley. 


I have two sets of hanging brackets for this rack.  One set on the boat, and one set in the trailer.  So that I can take this rack and all these spices with me north and south.  And each time they pass through the Condo, I top them up, so that I always have fresh spices.

I've ordered our prescriptions. 
 
 

I've also updated my GPS.  



I've completed my sewing projects - Including two new beach cover-ups and my Christmas Tree carry bag. 
 
 

I just have to pack up my laptop and anything that I need to go with, it for the next six months. 

Along with our overnight bag to use in the motels as we travel. 
 

 
I GUESS I'M ABOUT READY!
