Must I attend Mass while on "vacation"?

[wheatenlover]

I am a returning Catholic, after an absence of almost 35 years. I’m getting conflicting answers about the subject of when missing Mass is a mortal sin. I will be hosting 3 granddaughters at an RV park in another town, :shrug:this coming week, and we have many plans. Am I obligated to try to find a Catholic church in the area, and squeeze a Mass in even though it may thoroughly inconvenience my guests?
