I'll be in the area, hahahaha!! Yes, I'll be there and ready to hear about people's trips.

I am fairly certain Cathy told me she was going to miss this one but will be there in May. Judy is leaving soon so will probably have her good underwear packed and be wearing the ones from the B Team but since we don't look at unders all should be good. It will be warm enough to wear one of my striped shirts from the stripey shirt vendor at the Bastille Market so if Leslie will wear hers we will be twins...sort of (different color shirts!). Brenda? Ann? Lisa? others?

And Jean, we'll want a report on your most recent trips!

I promise to wear my stripey shirt. Looking forward to seeing everyone and hearing about trips and any new plans.

Whoa, wait. We in the Tulsa area Travel Group evidently missed a memo about reporting on people's garments, especially (but not exclusively) undergarments.

Did I miss that page in the Travel Group Guidebook? And I'm troubled now, that my underwear won't pass muster.

And it's interesting that one of your people takes the good underwear on tour; at least one of our group, who shall remain nameless (looking at you, KP!), takes her tired, worn out undies on tour, and discards them to lighten the load as the trip progresses. I wonder if Lisa Friend mentions that as a strategy in her packing video for Monday Night Travel.

Jane,

The last place I would want to be wearing old underwear that’s getting uncomfortable is during a trip when I’m walking much more than at home. That’s also when I want the most reliable ones since I’m taking so few. ; )

I guess I missed an interesting topic last month when I was traveling - LOL!

Jean, I guess I know what to add to the agenda for our April Tulsa meeting! "Undies: old or new?"

Jane, LOL! That meeting could have some “revealing stories”! A few years ago my husband & I were in Hawaii, and I brought three bras - two that were old favorites, but I didn’t suspect that could be a problem. Two days in succession, their underwire proceeded to break! So, I’m on Team Newer Underwear from experience. ; )

OMG....Jane! This has taken a turn, hahaha.

Jean, that was a learning experience wasn't it?

Back in the 70's my Aunt was a journalist for TIME magazine and went on the trip Nixon took to China. She took old undies and threw a pr away in the hotel room trash can as they were leaving. The press was boarded on their bus and a little housekeeper came running out with my Aunt's undies indicating she had forgotten them! Auntie was mortified and I am sure the whole press corps got a huge laugh.

So....the good ones go with me!!

Yes, great discussion topic, hahaha! Oh my...I will be giggling all day long!
