“Oh schit, Zac was there???

I hope that nut didn't drag you guys through some of those awful Adirondack "trails".”

“no he kinda hung out with his good friend jack daniels LOL”

“Looks like fun, mapes! We're heading off on a similar trip day after tomorrow....”

“where to?”

“How could you tell it was a male woodpecker??”

“Eastern Sierra, Little Lakes Valley/Rock Creek.”

“canoeing trip? they are the best. a lot of work but so worth it!”

“No, just car camping. We'll be hiking, fishing, even driving to some other areas like the bristlecone pine forest, Mt. Whitney area, etc. It'll be a blast - the other family we're going with are great folks with a son about BowlderSon's age.”

“Have fun, B-man It was great up in Saranac. A little more sunshine would have made it a bit better. But, the families and the kids had a great and memorable time. Good to have Zac along.”

“It'll be great! We're hitting the road early Thursday. Lots of coffee will be needed; we're going to see "Wicked" Wednesday night for BowlderGal's birthday....”

“Treebeard, you look like a happy bunch in those photos!

I love the one where the little girl "talked" you outta the hammock.

Who was that dude with no moose stash??”

“Great pics, looks like a fun time had by all!!”

“now coming to an island near you!

THE ISLAND HOBO

“So what are everyone's summer vacation plans? Beach? Cruise? Sleep in for a week?

We're hitting the beach for 8 days at one point, then 7 more after that. I'm hoping to get in some canoe or kayak time on the first trip.”

“Oh, c'mon, NO ONE is going on vacation?”

“I need a family to go on a family vacation.”

“No more vacations this year.”

“7/2 - 7/6 I'll be in Pensacola, FL visiting my aunt. 7/5 the Blue Angels have a practice show at the Navy Base. We'll go watch that.

7/6 - 7/9 I'll be in Destin, FL at the Sandestin resort for a conf.

A week of sand should be fun.

My wife will be in Destin for a ladies trip the Thur-Sun before all of this starts so she gets a week and a half.”

“Driving up to Vancouver, then over to Vancouver Island with some friends. That reminds me - gotta email Hodgeman so we can hook up while we're up there....


At least a couple o' backpackin' trips in the Sierras, of course....”

“Using the rest of my vacation days to move. :( I'll probably try and have a couple of 3-day weekends, but no big trips planned.”

“My family went on vacation without me, week before last. I had a lot of fun.”

“Spent 4 days in Washington DC.....I will spend a one week trip to NC for Wilderness EMT. But I have kids going different directions all summer....”

“Bayfield, WI & Apostle Islands, second week of July”

“10 days is Sept at the beach. we have plans for almost every weekend this summer :)
camping
music fest
parties
baby showers”

“I know what you mean, dutchess. Just tried to make plans to get together with a friend of ours and realized we don't have a day free for almost the next month.”

“I don't get no vacation:(”

“Mid-July heading to Estes Park, Colorado for a week of hiking and biking.”

“I envy you Salem...I want to go grab some mountain time...but ain't gonna happen.”

“We moved from NM to WA and are still exploring WA while we unpack and get settled. Tetons, Yellowstone on the way. I bought a bunch of books, Topo for WA and a couple of guides to Spokane area hikes. Should I go in search of grizzlies and wood caribou in the Salmon-Priest Wilderness?

PS: Spokane has a good REI, 8 Garcia bear cannisters in stock, lots of paddling gear.

“Lessee... Besides a big move this summer, I also plan to hike in Michigan's Upper Peninsula a couple times, at least. I don't have any plans to leave the state.”
