Getting Ready for our Dental Adventure

Our trip this year is with Orcas Christian School on Orcas Island, Washington.  Our youngest, Greg, is a teacher/pastor at the school and has invited us to join them on their spring mission trip

Countdown to departure.  We are packing for four days of clinic in four different locations.  Not too many location details yet.  Gloria and I typically prepare for around 50 patients per day, so we expect to see a total of 200 patients but we pack for 250.  Three suitcases, (about 100 pounds),one suitcase has already been sent up to Orcas for the team of students to check.  Two with us.  One suitcase for our instruments, the second for disposables.  If we need it or want it, we have to take it with us. Whatever supplies are left over, we leave for the local healthcare people, including the suitcase.

Sorting and packing all the needed supplies and equipment we store at home.
