The overalls have arrived, and I am gathering more things I need for the trip, and I have met a few of the kids and parents who will be in my caravan, and in my motor-home.
The best thing (other than the overalls) to have are baby wipes. Seriously, when the showers are only every other day, and you are hiking, baby wipes can help you feel, cleaner and refreshed, and totally help you smell better. I have my mini deodorant, my mini toothpaste, and my soap case, and I am busting out the sharpie to write my name on all of it. One thing that is better for the adults on this trip, is we don't have to stick to the strict packing list that the kids do, but, it really is best to not take too much with you, you really don't need it, and 11 year old kids are not judging, or at least part of this trip is to teach them not to.
One of the boys in my motor-home is the little brother of a boy who was in my motor-home last time I went. His mom was very excited, so I must have made a good impression. :)
I finally got a bag for my camera that Charles gave me for Christmas. I had been using a glove, so this is much better, and I am ready to take all kinds of pictures. At the parent meeting the other night, kids were reminded that if they were bringing a digital camera, to be sure to have enough memory. I guess there had been a problem with kids having to delete pictures. My first trip, I had my first 35mm film camera, and it broke after just one day. I was so sad! I was not going to have any pictures! But, because all we had then was film, after the trip there was a get together where everyone brought there photos and shared them and made arrangements to make copies, so, I was able to get some photos from the trip.
So the plan is, on the 26th I fly to Albuquerque, the motor-homes pick us up, and we head off for Acoma, having lunch while we go. We will tour Acoma and then we head some where else, and I don't have my itinerary in front of me, so on my next packing up date, I will tell you where we head next. Stay tuned!

I am all about baby wipes for any long camping trip.
