It just cost a lot to travel any more. In September we are flying from Florida to San Fransico Ca. We are only going for 5 days. The flight this time is the cheapest part of the trip. Because of award points the 2 RT tickets cost me $40 total, but then comes the costs, $400 for the hotel, $206 for the rental car, eating out while there about $30+ a day for both another $150. Right at $800 and free airfare. Driving a car or RV out for the same thing is beyound expensive. Any more if you are not going to spend a month at a location over 300 miles for home, it is almost not worth going.
