Oregon vacation - getting ready

August is nearing and that means it's time for the Couch family vacation. Planning is almost done but never quite finished - VacationGirl always finds just one more place that she just has to see. Of course, if every place that she found is actually visited the trip will last for 3 months instead of just 10 short days.

Planning has become an obsession - what if she misses something - gasp! The horror of missing something is just mind boggling! Trying to determine which maps and books and printouts of attractions to take is on-going so that an extra suitcase just for the travel books is not needed. What if she forgets the one book that describes the very special place? Will she miss it, will it be overlooked? Oh, the struggles that one must endure to ensure vacation readiness.

Oregon and all its splendor awaits VacationGirl and family. 15 days and counting.......
