The trip is soon™ and the final countdown begins. I think I am prepared for the trip...or at least as ready as I can be for it. I am typing this message from a used (new to me) beater device [CX22NA-BCLN4] I picked up at the mall today. It should be easier to post updates with a physical keyboard rather than from a cellphone telephone. Things left to do include final inventory checklist, some minor route planning, and some other (critical) thing(s) I am likely forgetting at this time. This will post will be sans images, but it should load quicker. Thank you high speed Internet tubes.

I hope to see everyone on Friday when the journey is anticipated to begin. It is turtles references all the way down.
