BC WildFIRE

In the early stages of FIRE, I wonder how many people cheat like I did. I just went on a lovely stay-cation with my significant other (SO) and my two good friends. We drove to the Okanagan and stayed in beautiful Summerland, in an AirBNB on a farm. For five nights, a two-bedroom suite with a kitchen, barbeque, and breakfast included, it amounted to just over $800 total. Pretty good price for the centre of wine country in British Columbia. What we didn't know was the farm came with about half-a-dozen beautiful farm cats and two gorgeous Border Collies for us to love. Needless to say, there was plenty time spent sitting outside with the critters. We made dinner a few nights of the week, but yes, we mostly ate out. There was wine tasting, ice cream, more wine with dinner, and a lot of downtime. Several magnificent fired pizzas and an enormous boat of nachos. Heaven. Now, you ask, how is this helping you pursue FI? Indeed it is not. Not really. Certainly not financially. Though
