Sam is no longer an underclassman! As a celebratory start of summer, end of school, and just because we needed them, we went shopping Friday night and came home with a large suitcase and matching carry-on that will never be mistaken for anyone else's luggage, ever. Sam's first use comes as she's gone most of July to Oregon. I'll need the carry-on for my quick trip to Michigan in August. Then we'll have them for the California trip in October together, and she'll carry them to London, Paris, and Madrid this time next year. They have the wheels that allow them to swivel every direction and are hard-sided but surprisingly light. What Sam will have to discover on her own is that the wheels are no use in those tiny European hotels that have no elevators with very narrow, dark stairways you must hoist your own luggage up and down. We'll see how light she find that big one, then.
