Gee, Mark, with all that camera gear, your car would only have room left for a change of underwear and a toothbrush!
I'm also not nearly as prolific (or skilled) a shooter as you and some others on the list are, and I also dislike carrying lots of stuff. So, my vacation kit is the K-5, my K-7 as a backup body, the 16-45, 50-200, 10-17, 28/2.8, 40/2.8 pancake, and 50/1.7. Sometimes I toss in the 24-90 because it's a good walking-around-a-city lens. If I'm traveling by car I take a lightweight tripod and a macro, in case I want to frustrate myself trying to take the sort of gorgeous pics you and Mark! take.
