    Give us one less day of vacation (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    This summer has had us on an airplane what feels like every other day.And while most of that travel was not vacation, it has had me thinking a lot about vacation.In my twenties it was always leave Friday night, get back late Sunday. Maximize the amount of time away. Sleep when you’re dead. Stay up for 36 hours to climb a large mountain. Drag your suitcase to the office because you’re coming straight from the airport.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image
