Everyone's fall schedule
« on: Sep 24, 2008, 07:45 AM »
Does anyone else have a hectic fall schedule like me

I've got the first 2 weeks in November to build an ice house from scratch, take my old wagoneer out of storage and get it ready for deer season, get my RV ready for deer season, fill 4 deer tags. Then I go on vacation where I'll be driving 4000miles to Malibu, CA and back again.

It doesn't seem like much here but for some reason my calendar is packed with my schedule.

I'm shaping up to be electively busy
Bowhunting starts oct 4th--place stand next w/e hunt through october
trip to pittsburg nh for rifle hunting (maybe?)
friend coming home from Germany for 2 weeks to rifle hunt vermont
holidays
help friend build shanty from ground up--in garage, awesome!
bird hunting when not deer hunting
fall bass in early october also
oh yeah, work full time, etc.
maintain income property
I may be busy but it beats the alternative--and I'm sure there are people out there busier than me

The employment of effort, hard work, time, and energy put in locating fish will offend noone.

Last weekend pulled the dock and boat lift out of the lake and put away for the season  :'(
Took down the porch screens, put away the 14' Lund and 13' canoe.  Soon I will winterize the
big boat, drop it off for storage and pick up the snow sleds.  Then I have to get them ready for
the season.  I am getting the ice gear collected
and looking it over.  Work is kind of getting in the way of things.  I mid-October I travel for a full
week (ruins two weekends!).  Other activities are keeping me hopping but as said in an earlier post,
it's better than the alternative!

Winterize my fifth wheel, go to Lake Oahe and fish with my brother for a week. Come back and put the camper in storage for the winter. Do some more fishing and when it gets cold winterize the boats and put them in storage for the winter. Bring my wheel house and portable home and get them ready for the hard water. I haven't decided whether I'm going to do a bunch of ice fishing this winter or go to South Padre Island and surf fish with my brother for a few months. I would really prefer the ice fishing  :tipup:.
It seems to go from zero to hero all some have to do is lie.

Too many toys.  To little time (to use them)!

Hey man, sounds like you need some ice for a vacation. Take a break!!!
If fishing was work I'd never be sick!

I'm going to go play frisbee with my dog until the water is hard.
