    Best Wrapping Ever!

    I had hinted rather broadly to my lovely wife that one of the new travel trays would be a really good Christmas present. As I have mentioned before, she is far better than I deserve and she followed through on my hint with a travel tray in Iberian.

    What I did not expect was what it was wrapped in:

    A Forest Green Co-Pilot! Did I mention that she is far better than I deserve?

    Now I can't wait to get back home from Grandmas to see what all I can pack in it!

    She has many skills. Luckily for me, she is near-sighted and has no taste in men!

    LOL - guess my son got a pencil organizer pouch wrapped in a Field Journal. Merry Christmas, jeffmac! Sounds like your best gift is your clever wife. ;-)

    Aww, you can't be too bad, you chose her, and you are obsessed with TB. Sounds like you are a relatively decent guy.

    Hmm, using TavaPeak's logic, Santa (aka Mom & Dad) gave me a $10 iTunes Gift Card wrapped in a Navy Medium Clear Organizer Pouch wrapped in a Linen/Steel Small Cafe Bag! I used an Ultraviolet Travel Tray as my ecologically sound gift wrapping for a variety of non-TB gifts for a friend.

    And I forgot one! It all fit in a new large packing cube for the Aeronaut I bought in March for a 5-day 3-city work trip and figured I might use a few times a year, max, after that, but have now used for short weekend trips about twice a month since. Hmm, I guess my signature needs a tweaking now!

    Regardless, I think you got yourself a pretty nice deal there!
