Packing and Goodbyes

We had a nice send of yesterday with a retirement party at 3M. Surprized that so many people wanted to celebrate our leaving but I can understand. It was fun to see many people I have worked with over the years but not seen in a long time. Hopefully the rest of the Kayak team can pick up the slack on bug creation to keep Denise happy. Today we are packing fevorishly. We are allowed to check in 200 lbs in 4 bags and have about 100 lbs of medical and computer books. Really we do not need more personal stuff for 6 months than we would for 2 weeks with the exception of some kitchen items that might be hard to get the same there. We can relax and think about what this all means when we get on the plane at 7 AM tomorrow.
