The final preparations!

The days before our flight were a bit hectic. We were making last minute purchases, returning things we didn't need, and Allan was trying to get things done for his degree. It was a lot of late nights, with tiny pockets of relaxing like an hour in the hot tub or making some s'mores with dad.

Mom came back on the night of August 9 from Columbus to help with last minute packing and organizing. It was nice to see her before we left.

Allan’s deal(s) of the day(s): various pieces of gear and equipment from Steep and Cheap after learning it was Backcountry’s outlet store, but with lower prices than Backcountry’s sale/clearance section and another 15% off for our first order.Lue lisää
