Husband and Wife: Planning a Weekend Getaway

Honey, guess what? We both have Friday off next week!

Wait, really? I totally forgot about that.

So, I was thinking, let's go away for the weekend!

Hmm, I don't know... I have so much work right now.

Jack, you've been working late every night this month.

You need a break, and honestly, so do I.

Okay, okay. You're right. Three days won't hurt.

Yes! Thank you! So, where should we go?

Easy. The beach! Sun, sand, and fresh seafood.

The beach? In October? It'll be freezing!

Oh, come on. A little cold never hurt anyone.

I'd rather go to the mountains,

and see the autumn leaves before they're gone.

Ugh, the mountains again? We always go hiking!

My legs hurt for a week last time.

Oh. I thought you enjoyed that trip...

I did, I did. I'm sorry. I'm just tired.

There's one more problem. Hotels are really expensive right now.

How expensive are we talking?

Well... about two hundred dollars a night.

Two hundred? For one night? That's crazy!

Wait, I have an idea!

Remember that little cabin by the lake, the one my sister told us about?

The one with the boat? Oh, I liked the sound of that.

It's only eighty dollars a night, and it has a kitchen.

So I get the water, and you get the autumn leaves.

Exactly! Everybody wins.

All right, let's book it before someone else does.

Done! We leave on Friday morning.

Great. I'll cook dinner, if I catch a fish.

Hmm, maybe we should bring some pasta, just in case.

Hey! Have a little faith in me!
