Amazing to Behold

I wish I had time to post a picture. I really do. Lithus, Timber and I are heading out of town today (which will do wonders for the mood I was in the last week or so, I have no doubt. Digressing, Pobble...). We will be back Sunday afternoon. That's 48 hours and only one full day. I have no fewer than six complete outfits with me. And four pairs of shoes.

A long time ago, a friend looked at Crow Mother and said "Dahlink, you are a woman. You are allowed to travel with as many pairs of shoes as you want." I'm holding on to that.

Those are (well-dressed and ready for any occasion) Pobble Thoughts. That and a buck fifty will get you coffee.

No doubt! I took 4 pairs of shoes camping last weekend: flip flops for lounging, flip flops for the disgusting shower floor, tennis shoes, and of course, another pair of tennis shoes, in case one get wet.

I still ended up mucking around in Clint's flip flops; they slide on easier than mine.

Have a great weekend!

We are planning a Disney cruise for next spring and I've already decided that we're going to drive or take the train to Florida. I can't possible fit enough stuff for an entire week into one suitcase, which is all I'll be allowed to have on a plane. I am SO with you on this!

I hope the 3 of you have a glorious time!!!!!

Yay for shoes!...I took a shipment with me to SF so I could cut down "on the amount of things I would need to bring home at the end of the year" still couldn't fit all the shoes I had left in the same bag I took the first shipment in...I think I accrued several more shoes between spring break and may 10th.

Actually, he didn't say I was simply 'allowed'... he said it was my 'God-given right' to travel with as many pairs of shoes as I want! hehehe! Great memory, thanks! (painful, too, though, if you can connect the two degrees of separation.)

Have a WONDERFUL time! I'm so envious!

I just returned from a 3 day thingie and I overpacked like a trooper. I always do. Although, I can't say I'm a shoe gir. Mostly varieties of jeans and shirts sweaters are my issue. I hope you and your outfits had a fantastic time!!

I have to say that as a male, I am very aware of the gender difference. I can (and have) traveled for a month with one small rollaboard (overhead bin size), one pair of shoes on and one pair in the bag. On the other hand, my (female) traveling companion has a SERIOUSLY overstuffed rollaboard with all the zippers let out to the point that it hardly passes (and might not...) the sizing frame. I don't inquire into the number of pairs of shoes.

I have just returned from a much-needed vacation! I hope you find everything you require: relaxation, adventure, and lots of marvellous places to wear your shoes!

I hope you enjoyed the time away, and it sounds like you pack like my wife. Ha. Oh well, there are worse things than shoulder strains from carrying bags.
