we follow the "better safe than sorry" policy

These are the 8 sketchbooks I have decided must be packed in my suitcase for Art Retreat #8.

While it likely seems excessive, we follow the "better safe than sorry" policy when it comes to the number of sketchbooks that are packed. 

I have also, finally, discovered the best way for a person who detests the packing part of going on a trip, is to start packing 5 days ahead of time and complete the task 2 days before departure. No last minute add-ins. No exceptions. 

Right before the suitcase is zipped up for the last time I have have Chris give me a pop quiz to be sure I have included those things I can't do without. Extremely helpful. Mostly in putting my mind at ease.  

There may or may not be any postings here during art retreat.  Photos will be available on Instagram.
