Wendell,
I am still trying to fine tune remoting in to the office, so I can maximize my ability to get refreshed and minimize workload when getting back to office. This weekend for instance, I remoted in on Friday, since I took the day off and got things tidied up and spent 45 minutes with LMI and left the house by about noon. Took the 81 vanagon close to the largest wilderness area in the lower 48 called the Bob Marhsall wilderness, set up camp which by luck, had it nearly to ourselves, and the next day drove 20 miles to my partner's cabin (Dr Mel on the user board) and camped there which abuts the Scapegoat wilderness and earlier today had a refreshing endorphin producing hike to one of the most spectacular views of Crown mountain. I did remote in for about half hour this evening when I got home, just to clean things up from Friday so Monday won't be so overwhelming. However, I agree with you. You have to make the time to get the kids and yourself away from any internet or phone access and just spend family time. Even though it was from Friday noon till Sunday PM it was nice not to think about work and appreciate the beauty of the Wilderness with family and friends, and not even have the option to use the internet or have phone access.
