He hasn't been here in nearly three years to see his only grandchildren. The flight is 45 minutes and lands right by Ryan's office, so it is easy for him to fly, and the cost is under 100 bucks roundtrip! My parents live 7 hours away and are here at least 8 times a year, but that is the other end of the extreme :)Tribe Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00569405648904949890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8827511044337889775.post-86039527006620618682009-11-18T16:25:44.214-05:002009-11-18T16:25:44.214-05:00I sense your frustration but I just have to say, I...I sense your frustration but I just have to say, I don't think a 7 hour drive is insigificant. We live 4 hours away from my family and we get up there 3-4 times a year and maybe, just maybe, someone will come down here for a visit. I can't imagine having to travel 7 hours. That said though - fi it was to sees a new grandchild? I'd be there in a heartbeat. :) That's the part I don't get - it's not the distance (because I think it's a lot) but the who you will see on the other end - and to me, grandchildren would be worth it at least twice a year. :)<br /><br />I'm sorry they frustrate you so much. :(Caseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15543461344197186456noreply@blogger.com
