After hours of research as to the supplies we would need, we found everything either locally or online.  We laugh along with the neighbors because I think there was not a day when either UPS or Federal Express wasn’t dropping off a parcel or two or three or four, lol.  Our goal is to pack light and not attempt to set any fashion standards along the way.  I was gonna leave my deodorant behind but Audrey gently suggested I pack it.  In addition to the basics of clothing and Emma’s blanky, food dishes and “nylabone” there is all the camera equipment including tripods, lenses, flash, and a host of other items that you photographers out there can relate to and know are mandatory.  I am watching and learning about each piece of the equipment because Audrey intends to teach me along the way.  Wow, is she brave attempting to teach me photography. The best part is you’ll all get a chance to see my progress along the way, lol, lol! Oh well they say we are never too old to learn new things and I am far from old.
