9 Weeks of Vacation!!!! I will be Bowhunting more than EVER this year .......and YOU?

Due to circumstances beyond my control, (attendance, called to another church)I will not be working in the school this year. I have worked there 7 years, 4 of which I worked full time with developmentally disabled folks and full time at the school .... severely limiting my hunting time ....which was fine with me as I followed the path God had for me ... the last 3 I have been the Administrator/Principal/Teacher ...small school ...vacation limited to summer and holidays .....

Now I will be strictly working for People Inc. and it turns out I didn't lose my seniority ...so my pay is what it was whne I left AND I earn 13.82 hours EVERY 2 weeks = 9 WEEKS VACATION :d I will be able to put more time than EVER into bowhunting ....... I might actually get a little picky on what buck I shoot ... heck, I might even break this 6 or 7 year drought I have had on a bow killed deer I am figuring in a 30 day season, I should at least get 15 full day hunts in there (combination of half day & full days)

And you? How many full and half days will you be in the field bowhunting Deer this season?

 

Good for you Tony! Im sure you earned it so enjoy. As for me If I dont find a job I,ll be hunting more then I ever have. I used to get 5 weeks vaction and it still didnt seem like enough time.

 

Great to hear Tony!!!

I too am a free man, as I have just sold my company and retained my 5-weeks vacation and some pocket change from the sale.
Maybe I'll take another "Buffalo trip" and this time you can't back out of our meeting

Good-luck or consider some big woods - NH hunting I have a buck picked out for you!

 

"...so my pay is what it was when I left AND I earn 13.82 hours EVERY 2 weeks" =AWESOME. That is about as good as it gets. Best of luck to you Tony.

 

great news brotha!!

*furiously covets PT's vacation time

 

I can hunt 24/7, I'm retired !!!!

 

Good luck and have fun! It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. But............. now there can be no excuses! LOL
Go get em Tony!

 

Oh how I loathe thee right now.

 

That is awesome new Tony! Can't wait to hear the stories of the much needed time in the woods.

 

Good for you Tony!!!! But 9 weeks man I think we know who has been looking over you!!!!Walt

 

That's awesome, Tony. Like everyone said, you certainly deserve it! Me, I get 9-10 weeks off in the summer every year, but it doesn't help with hunting. The only ALL day hunts I will get are our 6 saturdays. I will be out everyday of the week for the evening sits, though.

 

I can hunt 5 days a week, all season long this year. 3-4 x the time I have had in the past. I am excited to say the least. I HOPE I will only be in the field one day though (tag a bruiser opening day?) lol

 

due to school weekends are a giving...im gonna hunt everyweekend unless sports or something gets in the way. i dont start school till nine thirty first quarter so ill probably sneak a couple morning hunts in then. and alot of evening hunts.

 

Ed ..... say the word .... I am gonna put some time into the state land out here so that I am not so limited ... we have plenty of it around ...come on out and lets see what we can shake up..... I look at Grizz and his success on state land ....he gets 'er done ... How far into NH are ya??

Todd .....you are 100% correct ... ALL excuses will be gone this year ... if I can't break the drought ... I REALLY suck!!! :d


Oh ... I also forgot to tell you guys ..... I will be working a 4 day work week (4 - 10 hour days) :d

 

Thats awesome Tony. Between having off every other friday, weekends and atleast the last two weeks of the season i'll be out there a good bit as well.

 

Awesome. I get 4 weeks and will be using most of that during deer season.

 

Good stuff Tony. Does that mean a road trip to Colorado? Hmmm, I like the path God is giving you!

 

Will ... your elk hunt is high on my list! I am getting my PA license this year ... Maybe a NC one for a late season hunt .... I will be expanding my hunting horizons like never before

 

The real question is, will you make the NE GTG?

Congratulations my friend, well deserved. Might ya even come down for a few days with ole Rob? :d

 

not sure...... vacation started acruing this week .... going to Hershey with the fam 2weeks before the GTG ....I may come own for the day on Saturday ....

I would LOVE to hunt with you, Rob Hooking up with Chris as well from Erie ..... Man I can't WAIT for bow season
