I’m feeling a little bit better than I did this AM, so I’m thinking that this is a good time to do a little research for my first goal. I found a hot air balloon ride in richmond:

$329 for my husband and me. I’m not crazy about the site, which is a dumb reason not to be interested, so I kept looking and found this site:

$350 for my husband and me. This site is WORSE than the first one. lol. That’s my bit of research. Now I know how much I need to save for the trip and I have something to look forward to. I hope to accomplish this goal by the end of February or early March when the weather is nicer.
