Westward (Tahoeward?) Ho!

It's less than two weeks for me till I start out. I'm having trouble getting anything done. The house needs serious cleaning. I need to decide what not to take (I have about a zillion things I'd like to take, but why I don't know!).

Things I will take: (Can you tell I'm antsy to go, yet?)

camera plus spare battery
cot for anom
cookie sheet for Ann1962
musical instrument of mandolin family (can't decide which yet)
corkscrew

Things I could take:( How weird am I? How foolish are you? )

June rain

No big deal for most of you. But, this evening was the first time it's rained in June here at my house since 1999.

The storm was very much like our late summer monsoon storms, but it's way early for that.

Remember this one? ( 2 pictures )
