We Are In The Countdown Mode

Little more than 24 hours before we leave for Chicago, then on Tuesday on to LA and Brisbane.  We are both packed and underweight (barely for me).  I am trying to become comfortable with my new KINDLE.  I have loaded it with books from my favorite authors, and now all I have to do is figure out how to use it.  I am midway through my first book, and I think this is going to really be nice for a long trip.
