packing day

Here we are, the Dillon contingent, minimalist packers all, trying to get ready for our first Global Health Outreach medical mission trip. The rules have always been: passport, toothbrush, bathing suit, clean underwear? Okay, you are ready! But no.... we are wrestling with 9 giant suitcases, 11 partial lists of most-important things not to forget, most of which are misplaced, and one teeny Hondacar to fit it all into. Twenty hours to complete this tetris puzzle!

Love the picture. And the packing sounds just like all of us mortals. Is Isaac here now? Or was he yesterday? I kinda thought you'd pick him up on the way. Praying your trip goes well, and you need to do a slide show in addition to the blog when you return. You'll never post all the pictures you have on the blog, as the time and space are both finite.

Deborah, Do you know about Picasa? It's a Google thing and it's free. You can upload your pictures there and then make Pacasa Web Albums. You could record your activities in different places and make an album of each. Then you can give your friends and family the link to these albums and they would enjoy keeping up with you that way. You can add captions to the pictures, too. If you don't already know about this and are interested, I can send you a link to mine and you can look at it and decide if it's something you would like to do. Forgive me for being so forward with this suggestion, but Dawn and I have been writing for quite a while and she has mentioned you many times.
