Go-No Go decision day - 1 week ago 10/13/2015

Last week Sally and I sat down to discuss The Plan. There is an outstanding issue that might need to be addressed, but we need to make a decision. Are we going to wait for things to sort out? We could wait for a few months or a couple weeks. After a short discussion, we decided not to wait. December 31st will be Sally’s last day at work. January 15th will be my last day of work. We will have two weeks to sell everything or pack into a van and get it to Portland. We will actually use January to sell or give away items. We will leave Portland and drive the van back to get my car in Mountain View. We will drive the car to my brother in Southern California for “safe” keeping. We will fly from LAX to Rome on or about February 2nd 2016. This will be the start of our year of travel. Italy, Prague - Czech Republic, Budapest - Hungary, Croatia and Greece (hopefully Jordan too) will be our first 3 months.
We are driving up to Portland in November for Thanksgiving and will pack the car full. We will travel like we would on our trip to test things out. Weight and size of luggage is important for regional flights. We do not want to check any luggage on our trip. The more we move now the less we have to worry about later. We have a full basement to use in Portland should we need it, but I doubt we will be keeping that much stuff. A bed, 2 dressers, a TV, a table, a mirror and a buffet will be saved.  Some pictures and personal knick knacks and we are finished. Oh, and the plant. That fichus tree just won’t die. Good for it. We will take it along too. We can sell everything else, but some clothes and we are off.
The Go No-Go was a good chat. We are a Go. 100 days to wheels up.
