On the rare occasions when I leave the ground these days,
the last thing
I want to do is worry over the idiosyncrasies of holding patterns and
the like.

Well, you've just let the real meat of it all slip out. If flying is such a
rare occasion, then by all means spend it VFR,
and enjoying being where you are, and doing what you do.

Flying isn't a rare occasion for me--I am up
flying VFR at least 3 times a week . . . whenever weather is suitable for me to
work.
