It doesn't seem right that an average person would have in their possession, the gear, clothing and accessories required for such an adventure. But it turns out, I think I do. I tried to go shopping for things I thought I might need and came home nearly empty handed. Don't get me wrong, there is some really great stuff out there that I would love to take along, but the truth of the matter is that I live in Dallas and I just can't see spending hundreds of dollars for stuff I don't really need. Heck, I've been here a year and a half and have just discovered that darned fleece vest did not make the move. Will I really need insulated pants? So I bought these economy packs of hand and toe warmers. Those may come in handy but then again, may be overkill for 30 degree temps. But at least I have bought something.
So I'm fussing to my sister about how it just feels wrong not buying anything for trip when she informed me that she has found the Mother Lode of winter clothing. Seems in the midst of her home renovations, she has come across her winter gear that has been packed away. Apparently, she hasn't needed that stuff in south Florida either.
