my seminar option this month is two hours away. I could have waited til next month and they would have had a seminar here, but my husband would not have been able to attend it with me. Fortunately though we are driving up there, checking into a hotel a few hours before the seminar, and then going back to the hotel overnight before heading home the next day. If it wasn't for being able to afford a hotel for the night there is no way with my back the way it is that I would be able to drive there, sit through the seminar and drive back. So I understand completely. Take care of you and if you can do it over the web go for it.

The seminar was good but I did more research on line that was better so it is good you don't have to drive all that way. I'd never would've made it if I had to travel that far for it and then sit there too. Take care of yourself.
