I think I’ve finally decided

So here’s the tenative plan.  My friends from my small group have invited and insisted that I go with them to just outside of Seattle for 12 days.  I’ve been looking to go traveling and I think this is exactly what I’ve been looking for.  I’ve also really been wanting to go to Colorado as well.  I’ve found the best of both worlds.

I was checking out flights on Southwest and here’s what I’ve come up with.  I can go from Phoenix to Denver from July 4th to the 10th.  Then on the 10th I’d fly from Denver to a layover in Salt Lake City and then on to Seattle where I would meet up with my friends.  Then we’d go to the camping site (I think, not exactly sure if it’s a campsite or a cabin like deal) and hang out in complete and total relaxation and peace for about 10 days, then head back from Seattle back to Phoenix.  Sounds absolutely perfect.

Now here’s the deal with the flights.  I can fly to and from Seattle to Phoenix for $253.20 rountrip.  Now, if I wanted to go to Denver then Seattle it would cost me, with the layover, $280.20.  So it would cost me an extra $27 to go to Denver for 6 days.  Wow!  I’m stoked.  I just need to check with work and make sure that is feasible and then start to really save up.  I can easily afford the flights and even some spending money, but I need to make sure that I’ll be ok after that too.  What a Godsend though.  I’ve needed this very badly and now everything is coming together again.  You remember my “coming to fruition” post.  I think it’s happening again.  Things seem to be working out very well.  Maybe a little too well.  Screw it, I’m in charge of my own fate.  I won’t let “circumstances” get in the way.

God, please protect me and my feelings.  Keep me safe and focused on You.  I need to grow closer to You and lean on You more right now.  I pray that I do this and that You’ll bless me for following You.  Amen!
