it's a hard trip for many reasons, and i don't make it as often as i used to. i go when i can. but you're right, family is family, and i'm more likely to regret *not* going, than going. several years ago i made a conscious and mostly successful effort to let go of what i *wish* my family had been, and to just take them as they are. every now and then the frustration resurfaces...and i whine, then let go again. ;-)
