until you realize that your shorts are too big and you don't have a belt that will fit through the loops on your shorts and you don't have enough shampoo left in the bottle to pack for the length of your vacation, etc, etc, etc....TommyBahama wrote:it's like riding a bike!!!!....once you start!!SchoolGirlHeart wrote:I haven't traveled much lately and am way out of practice with packing....

After my first couple of years, I decided to just keep a "Key West packing list" on my computer. Each year, I modify it a bit, to cover for the stuff that didn't go right the previous year or the stuff that's changed. I then just print it out and follow it.SchoolGirlHeart wrote:I haven't traveled much lately and am way out of practice with packing....

Ooops, didn't see this.Sorry about your father-in-law. Looking forward to meeting you at MOTM. Safe travels.
i guess guys don't have those issues.....i know in my mind what i'm taking....the only thing i don't have to pack is ,sun tan lotion, ran out.....and i'm pretty much done packing...since most of the stuff is things i can't wear now ,that the weather and temps have changed up here.....shampoo / conditioner is packed...small travel size...same with tooth brush and tooth paste..colognes / razor....the only thing not packed is hoodie because i'm wearing it.......pema wrote:until you realize that your shorts are too big and you don't have a belt that will fit through the loops on your shorts and you don't have enough shampoo left in the bottle to pack for the length of your vacation, etc, etc, etc....TommyBahama wrote:it's like riding a bike!!!!....once you start!!SchoolGirlHeart wrote:I haven't traveled much lately and am way out of practice with packing....

i've never once packed without making a list of things i needed from the store. and that's one of the many reasons i'll never be a last minute packer for important trips. and yes, i know there are stores in FL, but who wants to waste vacation time running errands that could have been taken care of at home?
but in nc i was about 2 hrs away from the beach. it wasn't unusual for me to decide on Friday afternoon to make a reservation and stop by the house to throw a few things in a bag and head east when I got off work
my problem this year was that my shorts have been m.i.a. since i moved, and i had to hunt them down for the trip. which means that i haven't worn them since MotM last year. and i've lost over 10 lbs since then and they were a bit on the big side last year.TommyBahama wrote:i guess guys don't have those issues.....i know in my mind what i'm taking....the only thing i don't have to pack is ,sun tan lotion, ran out.....and i'm pretty much done packing...since most of the stuff is things i can't wear now ,that the weather and temps have changed up here.....shampoo / conditioner is packed...small travel size...same with tooth brush and tooth paste..colognes / razor....the only thing not packed is hoodie because i'm wearing it.......pema wrote:until you realize that your shorts are too big and you don't have a belt that will fit through the loops on your shorts and you don't have enough shampoo left in the bottle to pack for the length of your vacation, etc, etc, etc....TommyBahama wrote:it's like riding a bike!!!!....once you start!!SchoolGirlHeart wrote:I haven't traveled much lately and am way out of practice with packing....

but i usually refill/top off the travel size minis at least a week before hand in case i need more of something
but i do have to pick up sunscreen when i get there... for a pale red head, 3 oz of suncreen just doesn't cut it in that latitude for for a week![]()
