"Vacation State of Mind"

Sounds more like he is suffering from "Vacation State of Mind"

Laurence Gonzales, auther of DEEP SURVIVAL has been writing a series of very interesting articles on survival and how we get in these predicaments in the first place for National Geographic Adventure Magazine. The lastest one is about getting lost in Jockey Ridge State Park that is a mile long and three-quarters of a mile wide. The loacal park ranger calles it "a vacation state of mind". Seems like we have been protected or removed from so many dangers in our every day lives that we unconsciously accept that our little corner of the world is safe.
