Traveling Lite (sort of)

We're boarding in a few minutes and I got away with two carry-on bags despite bringing 3 cookbooks for the cousins, one fragile candy dish (from my mom for the cousins) and 3 t shirts, 3 dress shirts, gym shorts, a pair of dress shoes, nice shorts, a pair of drum sticks and a drumming practice pad for Joe. I would have brought the whole drumset, but I hate to check in bags!
