The Start of Freedom?

Josie and I structured this lovely plan to see Copeland play in their last tour.
In Chicago.

The plan is that we take the train from Alton to Chicago, $44 roundtrip.
Chris meets us at Union Station in Chicago, and tours us around until the show starts.
Go to The Metro to see COPELAND! Sadly, for the last time. $16.

$60 trip. (I have to come up with the money on my own though)

MOM SAID YES!
Josie and I will both be 18 by this time. (holy crap)
We're going by ourselves.

and my mother said yes, is this the start of my freedom?
