Taking Fridays Off If We Ever Get Summer (Score:5, Interesting)
I've been at a large traditional US company long enough to have almost as much vacation as a young European, but given the costs of travel, the hostility of US air travel, and the uncertainties of the economy I don't actually want to spend it all on the road. So for the last few years my plan has been to take Fridays off all summer and go surfing or biking or build stuff at Techshop or see local attractions (San Francisco area's full of them.)
Unfortunately this year the weather hasn't really cooperated - we've had good weather or hot spells during the middle of the week when work is busy, and lousy weather on weekends. Or there's been good weather inland and no surf at all, and the beach I usually go to has been closed for weeks due to bacteria :-) But we've gotten in a few nearby trips to watch the eclipse and the transit of Venus, and I'll go visit family over the holidays when the weather is bad here anyway.

Hunting trip... (Score:3, Interesting)
Although I'll probably get flamed by a bunch of people who have no actual hunting experience, it is a great way time with family and nature. I don't do big trips to foreign lands, but am lucky enough to be able to travel a couple of hours in various directions and enjoy a wide range of hunting opportunities including big game(deer, black bear, moose), small game, upland birds, etc..
I selected "low-key adventure" for the bear hunting trip, that will consist of a large amount atv riding and trail cam viewing, some general maintenance projects around the cabin, a little fishing, and hopefully successfully assisting the DNR with the only finacially viable bear population management strategy available.

One of the areas that I hunt by Lake Mille Lacs (county land) has about 10 people that hunt it and last year a new person started hunting there who is one of the problem hunters. It is public land so it is to be expected. There is a larger group (6 or 7) that hunt the north end of the property and my group (2 or 3) that hunts on the south end and we basically stay out of each others way. The new problem hunter decided to set up a little north (200 yards) of where my uncle usually hunts and all we heard was shooting, and it wasn't the one nice shot but a bunch of shots one right after the other. After a couple of days the noise stopped and I went to see if I could find this hot spot. I did find it and it was a hot spot simply because the ass hole was baiting with piles of corn and apples, illegal in Minnesota. He had put up a permanent post frame stand (not allowed on public land in this county), there were empty beer cans and food wrappers everywhere as well as 6 empty 50 lbs sacks of corn up in the stand. The worst was that there were 5 gut piles there so at least 3 of the deer were poached but it wouldn't surprise me if all 5 were. I called the DNR and they came out and took a look but as the hunter wasn't around there wasn't anything they could really do other than keep an eye on the site. I asked if I could tear down the stand and was told that it was abandoned property and I was free to do with it as I pleased. I cleaned up the area and on the last afternoon of the season thoroughly disassembled that stand and left a pile of cut and split lumber. I think I was most pissed because had the bad hunter not been there I possibly could have gotten a second deer as well as my uncle also possibly getting a second one. Yes they do get eaten, and I generally prefer a nice fat young doe to the big old tough buck for this reason.
Bad hunters piss me off especially since I follow all of the rules and don't take questionable shots. Because of this I have not gotten deer several times as I had a really poor shot, or was waiting for legal hours. I didn't take a shot once even though it was only 10 minutes before legal hours and a car drove by and spooked the deer I had my sights trained on, and another time I all I could see was deer snout and deer butt with the rest obscured by trees. I probably could have taken the shot in both cases, gotten the deer, and gotten away with it but I choose not to. When I am out hunting you wouldn't know I was there except for the blaze orange sitting up in the tree and once I am gone you would only find foot prints in the mud. I police up my trash if I drop something and pick up my casing. I am amazed by the amount of trash I find out in the woods, especially along the road, my uncle and I are always hauling it out a bunch of it when ever we go out hunting.

Vacations vs Unemployed (Score:3, Informative)
I think that's where a lot of resentment comes from with the long-term unemployed. I really think folks have in the back of their mind that the unemployed are taking benefits and having the time of their lives on the taxpayer and former employer's dime.
Nothing could be further could be from the truth.
First, there is no money to do those cool things. Sitting in front of the TV or computer gets old in about 3 days.
Then there is the shame of being unemployed. Everyone looks at you like there's something wrong with you. Everyone - especially if you were a software developer.
And to head off how folks "know" someone who is having the time of their life being long-term unemployed, I can tell you that they're just saying that to save face - with you and maybe with themselves. Because when enough people start implying or even explicitly saying that there is something wrong with you, you start to wonder. And then the despair sets in. To say, "I am having a really hard time getting a job." is almost like telling folks you're a drunk. But to say, "Hell yeah! I'm gonna ride the unemployment till it runs out!" with an attitude of sticking it the man, at least from my point of view sounds better than "I can't get a job no matter how hard I try." It's trying to fake that you're in control or give the appearance that you're in control.
When decent hard working educated people can't get jobs, something is really fucked up.
Oh, and all that bullshit that it's only folks with "worthless" degrees are having a hard time, well it's bullshit. I know quite a few folks with CS, engineering, nursing and other "marketable" degrees that are having horrible times getting work.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's something wrong with all of them. IF that were true, then WTF is going on with society?
Actually what gets me is when my fellow peons take the sides of the folks who are causing all this. The folks who parrot the talking points of Wall Streeters and ex-Wall Street money guy Presidential candidates; and in the meantime, the folks they are defending are sticking it up their ass, too. Depending the your abuser. When I see some small business guy talk as if he's one of the billionaire owner class, I chuckle.
Years ago, I was at a party with some Marine F-18 pilots and some were flight instructors. There was this C-172 pilot/instructor who was standing around and talking "shop" with the Marine Jet Fighter pilots. The Marines were really nice and polite, but they looked bored and they had this look of "WTF is this guy?!"
You small business owners who talk like you're part of the billionaire class remind of the C-172 pilot trying to be part of the jet fighter crowd. If you and your little puny business got in the way those billionaires, they'd have one of their "wage slaves" crush you like a little bug and there wouldn't be a damn thing you could do about it. They'll bury you in legal fees.

It's healthy to step away from the keyboard for extended periods of time. We've had lots of conversations with people about the American fascination with work.

How many people have actually asked their employer for more time off than they get for a paid vacation? I'd encourage anyone wishing they could go on a long trip to just do it - ask your boss for extra time off, see if he'll be flexible letting you work weekends before and after to make up for paid time off. Or, worst case scenario, see what they think of letting you take unpaid time off.
