Question Need help with a question/ decision please

Hi,

There is a task/work shop in the state capitol (466 miles away / 7 plus hours a way) that I applied for and got.
Today's email said, "You are invited . . . ."
The criteria were not difficult but this would help me professionally because I am going to be trained and then do something for them.

When I go back to work I will have the experience, lots of info, some authority (credibility) and maybe connections. Connections count a ton and I could use some right now.

===============

I read through the details quickly but it more or less goes like this:
June 23

8:00-5:00

They reimburse travel and ONE night in a hotel room.

There might be a small stipend for the day but I did not see that.

===============

It is too far.

But part of me needs reasons why I am not going.

Mari
