8 days and counting ...

Today, i began making our packing lists: climbing gear, bike repair kits, human repair kits (aka first aid kit), kitchen pantry items, camping equipment. I spent the morning considering several different organizational techniques & strategies to keep my virgo mind sane while sleeping, cooking, eating and playing out of a ToyotaTacoma for 20 days ...

I also seriously started mapping out the proposed driving mileages/estimated times that we have signed ourselves up for on this adventure... holy moly! Day 1: Carmel to Flagstaff (707 miles: 11hrs 47 minutes) Are we insane ?!

But after a calm and very rational discussion, my co-pilot and i both agreed that we are willing to put in some long days on the road, which would allow us to get to the promised land of 'milk and honey' (in our case its more like : mountains & hotsprings) all the faster...


i guess i better add: 'Find good books on tape' to my list for tomorrow ... any suggestions ?
