PACKING FOR TEXAS - WHAT DO I HAVE TO TAKE


Cloths -  At least most of the summer stuff I have taken off of the boat is to go directly to  Texas, so it was packed directly into a bin for the back of the truck. 
Foods I can't do without - My Canadian Pure Pork Sausages. 
Medications - Dan and I are each on a couple of medications that we can't be without.  (getting old sucks.)
Christmas Decorations - This year we are going to be in Texas for Christmas, so we need decorations. 
 
 
Money$ - Have to purchase some more US funds before we go. 
Atlas and GPS -  We might find our way without them, but I'm sure we would get off track a few times. 
Our US cell phone - all charged and ready to use when we cross the border. 
My laptop computer - with Phone numbers, and Address's  etc. and constant contact with family.   
 
How did people manage years ago without all this magical electronic stuff that makes everything so much easier when we travel.  Now-a-days there's no more traveller's cheques, no big paper maps, and you can keep in constant touch with family,  no matter where you go.  It really is quite marvelous. 
 
 
 
I HOPE I DON'T FORGET ANYTHING
