[nagdu] Trunks

Tue May 8 20:40:49 UTC 2012

Dar, I just went shopping for my bag for Guiding Eyes next month. I
got this simple one pocket large bag that is a carry on bag for $12 at
walmart. It is a simple matirial with sholder straps and buttons on
the sides to make it a bit larger if need be. I am going to be able to
put my clothes and all I need in it and put all I will have extra in
it also on the way home. I Already have a bowl and will get a crait
and bedding here at home also. Only things I am going to take from the
school are small things like extra bags, brush, tooth brush, booties,
etc.. I am told by friends who has gone that it is not much at all
except the eight pound bag of dog food but this bag I have looks like
it will cary all. This is GEBS though I am going to.
when I get my ticket soon, I am going to have to double check the
weight limit for cary on bags.
