Yup. Vacation time.
When we were first married, we used to have an apt next to the state fair grounds. Just coming home from work would take 1/2 hr longer than usual, and the police wouldn't let us into our own apt complex until we showed ID. We learned back-road approaches but it was still a very long 10-day stretch every yr. and nervewracking, especially when work was rough and all you wanted was to lie down on the couch and cover your head.
