So when the died, I am willing to visit my sister in law once. My wife seems to think that this agreement applies to her sister too. I tell her I will put her on a plane. She expects me to travel with her out to see my son and his wife and baby in Indiana 4 times a year. I tell her I will put her on a plane.

Every time we drive or take a plane it costs us $1500 to visit the son, and $1000 to visit the sister. Last week she want to drive down to see the sister for $1000 so she could go to a craft show there.

I love Mount Desert island, and have little interest in traveling anywhere else. My sister in law in an international banker with many many thousands of miles of frequent flyer jet miles. She could fly up here for the weekend and it would literally cost her nothing. Why should I spend $1000 to drive down to visit her?
Who wouldn't want to visit you guys on MDI? Maine is "Vacationland" after all. Have them come to you instead I would want to stay put as well...
