I made the decision to do this for clothing and bags at least several years ago. I realized that a lot of the items I was buying for "travel" were really great for everyday, like Uniqlo merino...

Lia, thank you for the packing list thread (my fave always) and especially this link!

I really struggle with finding swimsuits that are supportive and fit. I'm with you on the sports bra front:...

thanks for sharing--made me smile even before I finished my coffee this morning which is a minor miracle :D

I found a post on another forum where someone said they bought a r/t from New York to Europe in the mid-80s for $1,600 or so. That's $3,800 in today's dollars so it sounds like you're in the right...

Just wanted to pop back in and say thanks to everyone in this thread, especially carrot!

I was able to find a used bike on Craigslist and got it home. I’ve done a couple of workouts so far, and...

carrot--thank you for this wealth of information!

I don't think I ever will be a big road bicyclist. I wish that I could psych myself up to get around on my bike for daily errands and the like,...

Hi all,

My COVID weight-gain from low activity and stress eating has exceeded my tolerance level. I was really hoping that summer would bring a local situation that made me feel comfortable going...

I would go back to Hokkaido (and to the teeny camper van I rented there) in a second! It was my favorite part of my trip to Japan, and I didn't feel like I had anywhere near enough time to do it...

I have one of those, and one that's on its own band. I'm taking a break from my FitBit (back to a good ol' analog Timex lol), so I'm wearing the stand-alone RoadID for now.

I'm back in...

Happy to hear you've got a safe place to go nearby, azbandit. I'm in a similar situation--staying with my parents about 90 minutes outside the cities, but I plan to head back to Minneapolis later...

Glad to hear you're safe Rocks! I've been thinking about my fellow Minneapolis residents on this forum in the last few days, hoping everyone is ok.

I think the posts above covered everything I...

kamperdog, I'm with Bogiesan on this: there are so many real-world reviews with videos and photos online that what we post here would just be duplicative.

For a non-visual answer to your dilemma:...

I was doing pretty well on the fresh air front until this happened... #NotNowWinter!

Luckily, it seems that it will be close to 40 F tomorrow so it should all melt.

ClicketySnap What lovely pups! Mine acts similarly whenever she sees a suitcase or travel bag. [emoji6]

Arctic squills are blooming! They’re my favorite spring flower :heart_eyes:

I love having delivery available, but have many friends and family in areas where it's not. Heck, I grew up far enough into the country that there was no delivery of any kind, except USPS and the...

I’ve been working from home full-time since 2008, so that part isn’t a huge transition for me. My office is closed, so I’m getting a peek at coworkers’ homes and pets during video meetings. It’s a...

Darcy, this is amazing (and I love the mask with rubber bands).

I don't know if this is a good fit for your team, but there is a PPE clearinghouse project started recently, with more info here:...

Thanks for stating this out, AlaskaGirl

My BFFs group chat is working on a tongue-in-cheek “Apocalypse” mix tape ��

Fam & friends are holding a FaceTime happy hour this week since we can’t get...

Yeah, this is what's motivating me to reassess because I have asthma. Even a domestic work trip mid-April is looking dicey to me right now.

I'm shamelessly stealing some of this for my team's documentation process at work--thanks!

The meeting I was traveling to Germany for work for in March was just cancelled as of this afternoon, so it seems this is becoming more widespread advice in the business world. I think that we're...

Moose, thank you so much for posting this! I have an older (larger) version of that Anker charger and I'm going to get that cable for it. It will make int'l travel with my laptop easier to have a...

Yes, the wipes I was thinking of are the Lysol/Chlorox ones for surfaces, not skin, to clean tray tables and armrests, etc. I did read the jury's still out on whether these surface disinfectants kill...
