TheCEO says 'get a lens you want'; I want 2 or 3. :D

But, this trip could be that 'last long ride', so I am tempted to
spend the $.

Have you considered renting 2 and buying 1?

Rent professional cameras or camera lenses for Canon, Nikon, Sony, Olympus

T/R,
Thanks for that rental site; yes, I it crossed my mind, but we are doing 6-7 weeks, and it gets pricey at that long of rental vs buying the damn lens.
I will do some digging into those sites, and thinking.
Thanks, mD

Wow, 6-7 weeks! Awesome... yup, buy that glass :)
