Lori & Amy's Big Adventure - Alaska 2008

The countdown has begun - 25 hours and 30 minutes until we hit the road heading south for Chicago. From Chicago, we fly to Seattle where we board our connecting flight to the lovely city of Ketchikan. Total travel time is 9 hours and a mere 2,391 miles. My only concern is have we packed enough chocolate for the flight. Let's do the math - an average of 3 chocolate snacks per hour times 9 hours equals 27 chocolate snacks per person times two travelers equals 54 chocolate snacks. Zoinks - we need to make a quick stop at Woodman's or better yet Wilmar's before we hit the road. We may need to jettison a sweatshirt or two to make room. Could be a problem for Amy - I wonder if she is packing her space heater? Note to self - pick up travel space heater for Amy's Christmas present.
