| That sounds wonderful! I've always wanted to go there. This is the first weekend in 1 1/2 months that we have nothing happening! DH has to work the next 6 days straight, so I'll probably take the kids somewhere. |

| The kids completed school TODAY!! Yeah Summer Vacation!! We just signed on our new home on the 6th and because it was also my son's Birthday we didn't have a chance to walk through the home as a family. So we are going to head that way and "camp out" in the living room of our new home. No furniture, nothing...just us and some pillows and blankets. We might watch a movie on the portable DVD player we'll see. Maybe a game??? Tomorrow as per my son's Birthday request we as a family are going to go race go-karts. Should be FUN! |

| It was a GREAT weekend here! The weather was fabulous too! We went to friends in NJ yesterday and had a fabulous dinner of smoked trout (the guests--us--did the cooking)! Today we took a bike ride and ended up in NJ again--Stockton. Did some artsy things and then had lunch (crabcakes were yummy!). Then we rode back and are now making dinner. Tomorrow DH leaves for work and Tuesday I join him for three days in ACY. |

Any trip that touches a vacation day will dropped, the whole trip. So when you bid vacation, bid for a four day trip where the last day ends on the first day of vacation and then bid for a 4 day trip to start on the last day of vacation. If you do it right, you should be able to end up with anywhere between 18-23 or so days off in a row. And he gets paid for all the trips that were dropped due to touching vacation days! I don't know of any other airline that has that policy. You can bet XJT pilots will never give that one up! | |
