I guess I am too late, but the 16-85 with a D7000 seems unbeatable in your case. You cover the whole spectrum and if you are not the official photographer, you can do very decent portraits with the long end of the 16-85! Why carry more than that one, if you are not going to take the 70-300? Maybe the 35mm in your pocket, if light gets really low! Still better the 16-85 with a flash!
