Yikes. How long is the trip? And, well, hate to rub it in, but...if you had a Kindle you wouldn't need to haul all those books. Oh, how I love my Kindle. But have a great time, writing, Susan. That scenery...doesn't it set your imagination going? I lived in Alaska for twenty years and there was a lot of wild land. I used to imagine kids hunkered down in caves, and hiding in the trees. Just looking at the woods would set me off. It gave me the feeling that there were mysteries there that needed to be investigated and stories that needed to be told. 40 books from the TBR pile? Yikes. How long is the trip?
