Lalaland - I like your setup - very nice. What model is that cabinet? I just recently retired and haven't had a chance yet to go snowbirding - but it is on my list! We have a motor home - now if he would just get it running. :-)
Otherwise when we go anywhere, I usually pack some hand embroidery quilt squares - those I can do in the car or anywhere without needing much room. And yes, by time I pack all of the extra "what if" clothes, we could easily stay another couple weeks!!
