T minus 1.....


It is Tuesday evening and I just woke up from a nice long nap in my hotel room in NYC. Tomorrow is takeoff! All of my bags are packed up tight and ready to go. All together, they only weighed 50 pounds (including my tent), which I thought was pretty good! I am allowed one big backpacking pack, a daypack, and a medium duffel bag. See how cool I look???

The whole packing process was quite a process. I made lists upon lists and checked them twice, three times, even! Still... I managed to forget to bring some shorts to wear to sleep during the trip, so we had to make one quick stop in the city!

I am completely nervous and excited and exhausted, thinking about my trip ahead, but there is nothing left to do but climb right on that plane... full steam ahead!!! My next post will at least be from somewhere much, much warmer :)

That's all for today!

xoxo, Katie

  2. Hi Katie,

    I'm not sure if you got my first comment. This is the first blog that I have participated in, so I hope I'm doing everything right.

    It is so exciting what you are going to be doing. Can older adults go to these WWOOF's?
    It sounds like it would be right up my alley!

    We will keep you posted on the Snow Farm happenings. The Lane boys will be here this weekend and we will contact you then.

    Enjoy your journey.

    Love
    Grandma Snow, Grandpa Snow, Smitty and Sammy
