I can't wait until we can have more free time in semi-retirement and take a month or more to travel. We're always rush rush or a quick extended weekend, so don't get to enjoy the trip to our destination.
That's one of the reasons why I refuse to fly. Worn out before we arrive.

Atchafalaya_man is right that you've seen everything close.
Make a mad dash to where you want to go, than meander your way for the next 2 weeks heading to a far point then starting to swing back toward home. Then make you dash home. This way, you get your long trip, you still have a week trip in reserve and several long weekend trips to keep work from driving you nuts because you used all your vacation at one time.

I would take one long trip. Cover more ground, have more time to relax, and if fuel is a concern you would burn it at a slower rate over five weeks, right...?
That's me though, there sure seems to be a lot more to see and explore on this side of the Mississippi, get away from home for a while!
