The bottom bunk in KWs and Cascadias is TXL.

I'll add this about sleeping with your stuff. I'm 6'2". In my trainer's truck, I had to sleep with most of my stuff on the bed (at the foot). No problem for me.

Cookies for me too, please! Were it my truck, I'd be eating them outside of it, as they tend to crumble.

The bag looks good.

Pack it the way you have, with a little extra room in it, as you might accumulate a few new items among the way.

Oh! Oh! Ziplocks! Take a bunch of freezer-grade pint-sized ziplock bags. Get 'em out of their box and put a handful of them inside one of the ziplock bags and store them in a side-pocket. They're so handy on the road and they don't take up much space to bring along. You'll be so glad you have them.

I put EVERYTHING in ziploc baggies. Anything that can possibly spill or leak. And other various little things I don't want to get lost in drawers.

Okay, SO Thank you to EVERYONE! I'm so nervous! 1.5 days and counting till I'm on that big bus to see toto! Ugh! I Went to buy sheets today and ended up only buying a flat sheet. Whomp Whomp.

So IF this posts correctly, you should be able to see the photo. If not... someone delete the post please. I used a direct link from Facebook cause Photobucket has been down.

This is what I'm bringing. Top bag is my computer crap. ( I can't live without it), Pillow, blanket, sheet, clothes and everything else my dainty ass needs. Ignore the towel to the right, already got one packed and Sorry guys... no cookies this time. lol Yay or Nay?

I tell you what. I was going to bring my laptop but I'm glad I didn't. You will be so exhausted all you can think about is sleep!

Even now being solo I have only used it a few times. Most nights (or days) we just watch an hour of tv and crash.

Just my thoughts...
