Almost Packed

Six 50-pounds suitcases are taking up most of the space in the living room. Alden wants to have Hannah over for a movie this afternoon so I have to find some place to hide them (they block the view of the TV.) The dogs and cat weave around them without comment. But they know something is up.

I've shipped some things to Nevis (before Bob told me not to because of new duty rates that will kill us) and will also probably beg space in the bags of those who will be visiting us this summer (namely Bob's parents, Bill & Jessie) as I keep adding stuff to my list.
