Then she fell in love with the twin baron's club seating, but good lord....the gas bill was just too painful once we took a look at that. So here we are. Club seated bonanza for the win.

We spend WAAYY too much time on controller.com!!!! We have two dogs, no kids (we're gonna take a pass on that) but want the adventure of taking a weekend at the beach (east coast/outer banks), and flying to see family.

I told her outright at the start that it would make NO financial sense for us to buy an airplane. NONE. But just how someone might buy a 200k RV to drive around in, it's a lifestyle decision. They enjoy camping with family and we'll enjoy flying to see ours.

So we've started hoarding our money and God help us if that contoller website ever goes down. Haha.
