    Hanging out at Ronald Reagan airport with my SK and A30. We’ve been having a train wreck of a day that started with a metro line not available and has included a cancelled flight at Dulles that was rebooked here.

    This is my first truly solo trip, and I’m ridiculously grateful that I travel carry on only and that everything goes on my back. Most people had already checked their bags before they found out that the flight to Toronto had been cancelled, but my luggage is one thing I never really have to worry about.

      So this was last Thanksgiving... Both my awesome zip top shop bags on our catamaran private sail and various beaches in Antigua. Large served as a beach bag and the small was my tote bag. Not shown is my wasabi size 3 TSS which I used to carry my go pro and all its bits and pieces.

        Hi jenns, welcome to the forum and thanks for posting such great pictures! I think that the Island Halcyon perfectly matches both the colour scheme and the topics of your two shots!

          Where did your TB bag go lately

          Long story, but this is not my Co-Pilot. It is just visiting me for awhile before heading off to live with @G42. It was fun to try out a new bag for a few days, especially such a beautiful one.

          My rain jacket is pretty much exactly Nordic with Nordic grid lines:




          Here is the CP all packed up (banana baby approves):


          The CP accompanied me to the packaging-free shop:


          And to the library, where it sat on a Wasabi chair:


          It's all yours, @G42, hope it arrives soon!

            glad you two had fun roaming with the CP and thank you again - I can't wait to see it in person!

                    Took our A45s and the rest of the TB collection on their first flight a month ago.

                    Loved breezing past the rest of the plane waiting at baggage claim and heading straight to the rental car! Even my husband is a convert - so handy.



                    My LCB with absolute strap was AMAZING to haul all over Disneyland - o-rings and key straps are imperative to getting into the bags and not losing anything! Even my sunglasses case has a snaphook on it. Halcyon/dyneema has definitely wormed its way into my heart as my favorite packable bag fabric... I carried a MCB on the plane and through the rest of the trip, and packed the LCB without its strap attached flat against the bottom of the bag, then folded the strap up and tucked it in an end pocket. Took up no space, weighed nothing, I’m sold!



                    Discovered at the San Diego Zoo that a baby polar bear is just the right size to tuck in a MCB.

                    Such a great trip, and I loved all my TB goodies that made life easier.

                      Where ‘we’ have been recently includes a few car rides—buckled up for safety of course! PU ventured out for a client’s senior photos while MCB and I strolled around town for some spring shots while the trees are still in bloom.

                        A fellow Okie!

                        We have since moved out west but its always nice to see another Okie in a group.

                          .
                          I've just returned from a 10-day trip to Peru with the Shadow Guide as my main bag and a Side Kick as my personal item.

                          The first photo shows the bags on a park bench in Cusco, as I waited for an Uber ride to the airport. The second lays out the contents of the SG, most of it packed into various TB organizers: two packing cube shoulder bags (coyote) with rolled shirts and etc.; a travel laundry stuff sack (island) with socks & underwear; a size 2 travel sack (NW sky) holding a Mystery Ranch "In and Out" packable backpack; and three 3D organizer cubes -- one with toiletries (NW sky & clear); a second for electronic stuff (island & mesh) and a third for miscellaneous small stuff (dawn ballistic).

                          Other contents of the SG: two rolled pair of travel pants; a light down jacket; a 12 oz. Nalgen hip flask; a Kindle Fire HD; and a Chico shopping bag.

                          Two of the organizer cubes and the Kindle were stored in the large pocket on the lid, while the rest was packed in the body of the SG. And on the way home, I was able to find room for still more: 1-1/2 pounds of smoked salt; a small carved gourd; a baseball-style cap; and five woven wool items (two scarves, two belts, and a hat).

                            Where did your TB bag go lately

                            I didn’t get any pictures of my TB bags that visited the factory showroom today (most stayed in the car), but here’s my daughter introducing her Grass Cubelet (containing Daniel Tiger figures) to some new bag friends - specifically a Dawn Cubelet and an Island Travel Cubelet.
