After quite a bit of travel recently, I decided it was time again to clean and condition a few of the pieces that have been with me for hundreds, maybe 1000s of trips. It's incredible the memories that come along as I think about this #Tumi work bag and all the people and places that we have met and enjoyed.
Yes, it's an inanimate object, but it's a vital piece of my work life and has sat on desks, planes, hotel rooms and ' go ahead, put it on that chair right over there' all over.
When someone tries to be nice and lift it for me, the comment is always "holy cow that's heavy, what do you have in there?"
I have everything in there possible to be ready for meeting you. Because when you travel like this, you have to come prepared. I'm more astonished than anything that it doesn't collapse under the weight! Laptops, folders , papers, Today's Wall Street Journal (and yesterday's also!), That article that I read that I wanted to share with you after reading it again on the plane, cords, a random thumb drive, emergency make up/toiletry supplies, 3 different flavors of tea that I never seem to remember are in here... And almost always a book even though it's too heavy and it barely fits.
Thanks Tumi...and thanks to each of you.
We'll see you soon!
