"Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created them." – Albert Einstein

Total so far to attend my baby brother’s wedding?

$585.00

And I haven’t even bought a gift.

They are getting married in the heart of the Hudson Valley wine country.  Near Vassar.  And the NY Culinary Institute. During the height of the fall leaf-viewing season.

The kicker is that I could stay in a cute little B&B for LESS money than I am paying for a Rodeway Inn.  EXCEPT none of them allow children under 17.

The next couple who chooses a scenic, but EXPENSIVE locale for their nuptials will be shot.

    I was debating on making the trip in to Lake Charles (yes, it’s only a two hour drive…) for my older brother and sister-in-law’s impending child birth but I don’t think I’m going to do it. I just can’t make myself, no matter how hard I try. I can see now, I’m going to be the bad uncle.

    Ok – I know it’s going to be an expensive trip – but it really is going to be BEAUTIFUL that time of year. Enjoy that!!! I’m so totally jealous. 🙂
