Tales From The Trail: Packing For Two Weeks

Packing for two weeks is a challenge.

See those two stuffed suitcases? Either one of them has been with me in Cleveland, Boulder, Las Vegas, Iowa , New Hampshire, South Carolina, Houston, Indiana or DC.

All of those trips have been on the campaign trail. Eleven months. I can tell you, it has gone quickly and I have met so many great people along the way.  

I remember last year at the first debate in Cleveland, thinking I'd be back within 12 months for the RNC convention.  And here we are.

Like many of you, I too wonder how it will all turn out.

Sure, we have done the preparation, made the lists, called the delegation, reached out to the representatives, and put together a solid plan. But, in an election like we have not seen in decades, I've now learned to expect surprises.

I've also learned to expect lines. Lots of lines. Security checkpoints, traffic, sometimes in airports. So I'm bringing plenty of patience with me (that is a challenge for someone who moves at like 120 mph).

But somewhere along the way, I do plan to take a moment to soak it all in. I'm very fortunate to be an eyewitness to history.
