I'm nearly packed and some old theories have come to mind.
1. Leave everything, including the pack and electronics. My favorite socks already have holes (14), but I think they can make it another 12,000 miles.
2. Take only what I don't wear and trade it as "retro 80s."
3. Or, pack what I want and be prepared for some head-scratching and friendly ribbing ... aka "What in the world were you thinking when you packed that?!"
There is only 1 month and 27 days to go. The reservations are paid for and the shots made me silly. My favorite jeans are twenty years old and in better shape than the socks. Good thing the tennis shoes are optional...their outer soles are nearly gone. My boots are new.
