Your family can't complete a summer activity in 30 days?

And again in the upper Midwest it's unlikely to become prevalent as summer tourism businesses will fight it tooth and nail and money talks in all walks of life...
This is a typical year round schedule

The window is too small of a window to get everything in. I have a large family and I can't take 30 consecutive days off of work but there are several things we do throughout the summer with appropriate intervals in between so I can take off from work and so can my wife and we work it around her work weekends as she works at a hospital, so yea 30 days isn't enough. Again we have like 3 months of decent weather where we can do certain things up here in winterland USA, to me summer is already too short, this would make it unbearable to live here. If we lived in Phoenix or SoCal or Florida then it's not really as big of an issue as it's reasonable nice year round in those places but not here, hence I don't want any part of this idea.green4 wrote:Your family can't complete a summer activity in 30 days?
