I just pulled the plug on the trip. At the rate prices are increasing, especially the price of gas, something has to go. I can afford to absorb the increases, but I can't justify it. At the rate we're going, I predict $5.00/gallon or more by the end of April. Add to that at least 4 nights in a hotel and eating in restaurants, and it's an expensive trip that is hardly a necessity given the outrageous inflation we are facing. I'll miss being there, but that is life.
