The man in brown visited us today! We are ready to start packing. This stack is a little intimidating to say the least. Actually though, we are only allowing one footlocker each. The other footlocker each is for VBS supplies, food, and things to take over and leave for the project. You would be amazed at the things people think they need... I think Jason and Antionette are laughing at us right about now and my mom is rolling her eyes. If they only knew!!! Actually, I have done my share of eye rolling... particularly at some of my husbands outlandish ideas. Uh, did I say secretly? Anyways.... as I was saying !!! We don't have any suitcases because we have never really needed any, I guess. We have small rolling bags but they don't fit anywhere near 50lbs. That's how much each piece of luggage is limited to. These footlockers were $25 each which beats suitcase prices but I had to special order them and there were some shipping costs. Couldn't find a single footlocker in town, though Wal -Mart would have ordered them and they would have cost more than these with the shipping. I am a little afraid of this monumentous task - this computer isn't sure monumentous is a word, or that I spelled it correctly, but it describes the task very well, according to me.) I am afraid of all the STUFF we are going to bring that we don't need. So, Antionette, Jason, Mom, let us know what you need from us quick... or forever hold your peace

Wow, I am not really laughing. I am wondering what it will look like when, say 25 or so people put their luggage together? We might have to rent a truck? I think you'll have to work getting me an idea of the scale of the whole amount of baggage so we can work out transport over here. Jason
