Super User Darth-Baiter Posted April 30, 2023 Super User Posted April 30, 2023 Wednesday. i will take my wife, pick up her best friend, drive them to the San Fransisco airport, drop them off. (maybe after a nice lunch) and send them to Paris for a wonderful girl trip. 3 weeks of me running the show at home. on the way home, i will stop at Hi's Tackle shop to see what they have on the shelves. Thursday...i will be on a mental holiday, floating around either the California Delta or Clearlake fishing what is left of my spring season. hahaha.. Friday, if i can get my boss to cooperate, i will be doing something VERY SIMILAR. i am tasked with keeping our dog and cat alive, so i wont be doing any overnighters at New Melones, or Lake Shasta. Saturday, Sunday? hahahha...you know it. if i was smart, i would take a Stay-Cation for a week. 4 Quote
Super User BrianMDTX Posted May 1, 2023 Super User Posted May 1, 2023 My wife and oldest daughter are doing Amsterdam-Paris-London at the end of the month. My arms will be aching from paddling and casting when that week is over! 1 2 Quote

Super User Bird Posted May 1, 2023 Super User Posted May 1, 2023 My wife has a business trip for a week in California, right on Huntington Beach. She booked 4 airline tickets, herself and our 2 daughters ( 25 and 30 ). The 4th ticket got immediately cancelled when I weighed my options. Sitting on Huntington Beach for a week ? Or unmolested Bass fishing for a week ? Enjoy the trip honey ? 7 Quote

Some of the best draught beer I’ve ever had was in France. Grimbergen. That stuff was fantastique! Quote

Hell, I’ll know phrases. I almost turned Thai in a month. Quote
GRiver Posted May 3, 2023 Posted May 3, 2023 Be safe and catch lots of fish, keep us updated and tell your wife “safe travel” and take lots of pics …. You, not your wife, I’d rather see a smooth lake and a nice fish than Paris. have fun Quote
