just get a plane if you could affford it, its better
we're poor yo
there's no way my dad would pay a stuffton for 3 people to fly out to wisconsin for a few weeks, get a rental car during that time, and fly back
the last time we used a plane for a family vacation was for when we went out to california to visit a grandma. we only went because she told my dad, instead of paying her back some money she loaned him to buy the house, to take a trip out to see her in san fransisco for a few days.
