Hah! In my dreams....in my dreams. I have a recurring fantasy involving a Syncro, a dog, and a very lucky lottery ticket (and I guess the wife, if she wants to come), but so far nothing yet. I only get two weeks off myself, these days... I've got to live vicariously > through *someone*.
Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I had to harass by boss like crazy to get my two weeks CONSECUTIVELY; and after he retires in July and I buy the business off him, I will probably never get another vacation again.... I feel like I wasted my ignorant youth driving around in boring cars held together with permatex and hose clamps when I could have been just as foolhardy a jackass driving a Vanagon held together with permatex and hose clamps, and not spent as much time trying to sleep in a tent. If I can keep one of these running till I can afford to retire, I know what I'LL be doing then. -- John Bange '90 Vanagon - "Geldsauger" |
