N is caught between needing to use some vacation time (or lose it) and worrying about being gone--knowing how much work will stack up in his absence. Not much of a vacation if you spend half your time dreading the aftermath. Now that he's begun the process of telling himself he really does need a break, we need to decide where to go.
We have plenty of options as well as requests. Lise yearns for the family camping trip and so wants us to head somewhere she can join us on the weekend. Also, we have others--family and almost family who would like to spend time in the woods with us. How to balance all that AND consider our own desires? Almost more stress than staying home! Yes, you're right, I need a different state of mind, a new point of view, an attitude adjustment . . .

How about the two of you going camping and then just pick one day to invite the others to join you?
I want to go for a whole week, not a weekend. :p Am I stressing you out? Sorry.
Shirley, The problem is that N is yearning to head to the Lochsa River in Idaho. Years ago we found a campground we said we'd return to one day. Not sure how he even remembered.
Liseanne, Really? A whole week?
