6 nights during a KT hike, ate enough, but after a while would have killed for a cheeseburger....

The only Easy day was yesterday.
For those who have had done longer trips, were they one time things, or are they your usual trips? And where do you get all this time to take off?
I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've brought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!
@ Rowan: I'd both love to say they are/aren't my regular length trip. There have been periods of my life where making sure plenty of time for trips (every free weekend along with at least one multi week trip per year(and one glorious stretch of 6 months where nothing but tramping/hiking happened)) was the priority in my life. Other periods I've had to let go of most of the weekend trips but have usually managed at least one 10 day - 3 week trip/year. They consume almost all of my annual leave and could be considered selfish but I'm pretty sure I couldn't be as good a person in both my family and professional lives without these long breaks.
Did fourteen days canoeing the Boundary Waters back in 2009. This year I'm planning twenty-one days up into Quetico (no drops or caching; I'm already dehydrating meals for the next trip).
