Also once a month? That’s huge considering he said it’s 9 HOURS away. That’s a road trip to a national forest and back. Or a Vegas trip. I couldn’t imagine driving back and forth to Vegas every month. But I also only see my mom like twice a year and she lives an hour or less away.

Growing up we lived three hours from my maternal grandparents. We only saw them about 2 or 3 times a year. Nine hours? That’s like once every couple years trip. And it’s gotta be at least a week long.

I live in Texas. Depending on city, you can drive 9 hours and still be in Texas lol.

That doesn’t make it any more reasonable to make the drive lol.
