GREAT ESCAPE 2012: Fifth Time is a Charm

Just a week away from our FIFTH (count it.. FIFTH) Great Escape adventure. We went out shopping today and got all of our last-minute items. Ready to start organizing this weekend. I have made a firm promise to myself to pack LESS stuff this time... but I say that every year and then, at the last moment, I panic and start throwing in stuff that I never use. And I curse every extra pair of socks all through the hard legs where we have to haul our luggage with us for days on end. You would think that I would learn from my prior mistakes.
