This week Melanie and I talk about how (and why) we love to pack for a trip; I share some observations about the Men's College World Series; and Melanie tells a sad-but-true tale involving a plumbing issue and a very unfortunate skunk. It feels like a lot has happened over the last week.

We also discuss what we're enjoying about the World Cup, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, everybody!
