Wow Woog, a boat too! You have a lot of toys. I too need to start planning out the summer. I am lucky that I have the summer off of work so I can do a lot with the Ds. D10 wants to do the whole "family" vacation. I told her that I don't think Daddy will be going. The Ds still don't know that H wants the big D. One of H's complaints to the family T is that I would plan things with the Ds and then invite him. Made him feel like he wasn't part of the family. SO at this point do I make an effort and ask him if he wants to do a vacation with us, then plan around him? It might be easier if your W didn't go to the dude ranch. I'm sure your kids will miss her, but it will probably be uncomfortable with her there.
