Yah, I keep thinking of this not meeting his mother issue. I am sure you even argued for paying for a taxi to go there, right? There are ways. They may be a little on the pricy side; but there are always ways. And, yes, I know of times when Jomo and his friends wrangled a car for the day or a ride with a friend to get to where we were going.

You can't go back for what you've missed
So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right
You only get one trip
So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast
You only get one trip
