1) To avoid last minute embarrassment, I would begin to experiment with packing the sink sooner rather than later. If you can tell me where I might find the large grey bag into which the sink might fit, I can begin experimenting tonight.

2) I'm all in favor of saving money. 

a) Consider whether we should take the 6:30 a.m. regular ferry instead of the fast ferry.

b) On arrival, if you will collect and assemble the luggage, I can guard it at the wharf until you have taken the bus to Madaket and returned with the van to retrieve us (luggage and me).

c) On departure, if you will drive the luggage and me to the bus stop at the Madaket Road- Cambridge Street Intersection, you can then drive the van back to and park it at the house, before walking from the house to the bus stop where I will be waiting for you.

d) Although, as I've mentioned, I much enjoy the traveling, economics and efficiency dictate that we stay as long as possible to get the work done.
