Trip to Napa Valley
Travel & Leisure: North America

Why do you want to do this?

Enjoying Wine is something I like to do. Though, part of the trip would include hiking in the Redwood Forest, as well as a trip to San Francisco.

What three things will you need to make this happen?

Save Money

Save more money.

Go.

What is the biggest barrier to your achieving this?

Money. I'm working on my debt management plan, after which time, I can start working on a savings plan. This will take a while.

Still a far off goal.  Our vacations will be more local for quite a while now.  I continue with a savings plan for 'vacations' in general.  Once I start seeing an overage of what I use vs. what I save, I can start making a plan and timeline for this trip.

 I have been to Napa...very nice, but you have time as you want to go in teh summer.  Sounds like a GREAT goal!

I've been thinking lately about changing this goal.  Or, at least adding a new one and see which happens first.  My husband & I just celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary (back in November) and we want to make sure we can make it to Aruba for our 20th.  Sounds far off, but I know it'll take time to save for both.

 Arubas nice, but small, you can do that Island in a weekend.  Napa will take you a full week.  I would advise Napa.  Thank you also for your earler comment on my goal, it has been helpfull.

Thanks, Erik, I'll think about that.  Definitely will want to hit both.  We went to Aruba for our honeymoon and our 10 year anniversary (long weekend for the anniversary trip).  So many things I want to do.  One of my friends is renting a Villa in Tuscany for her 40th in August 2013 and wants us to come.  Unless something magical happens, I don't see all this working out, but one step, one goal, at a time...
