If it's any help, Art, in case you do decide to go...We just flew to NYC and back, spent time doing touristy things, and my son who didn't get covid with the rest of us in May still didn't get it. He masked with a KN95 in crowded indoor spots and on the plane rides there. Lots of people were masked on the planes and in the airports. (And lots not.) I know that's just one story of NOT getting it, but it might help knowing it's not inevitable.
I hope you're kind to yourself about the second-guessing bit too. I think it's perfectly reasonable in this circumstance when things are changing so rapidly. If you decide to go I hope you're able to find some peace and enjoy the trip.
