Blue Road Adventures: Stop the clocks so we can have a few more minutes.

Are we the only ones who never seem to have enough time to pack? We have been planning this trip since we brought the Coachmen 5er home in March. We knew it needed tires. We didn't count on the Dodge being so tempermental, but that issue has been resolved for almost two weeks.
Today we transferred our travel items into the 5er. All the goodies we are going to redistribute amongst the offspring were carefully loaded and securely stored. Our personal items like clothing and Mary's guitars we all placed safely in their places. I managed to change the oil and get the rear seat covers in place for the hounds to ride comfortably in the quad cab. Tookout the old steamer trunk from the rubbermaid shed to be transported north. I even cut the lawn in back so it wouldn't be too high when we returned in August. Yet there was still so much to finish before we leave tomorrow.
Everytime we tell ourselves we will start loading sooner. Everytime we find ourselves loading uo to the last minute. Once we are on the road full time, I am sure we will be wrapping up our stuff at 10:00 a.m. to make the 10:30 a.m checkout...
