Wow, only home for 10 days in 3 months and she rewards you with a fishing trip AND a delicious 18 year old companion!?!   Your wife is definitely a keeper!

Here I am working for a another organization (since last October) that only requires 40 hrs a week, when I'm in the office. Since last November I have been sent to remote sites all around western Canada. No sooner do I finish one assignment than do they find another for me. I think I have been home about 10 days total in the last 3 months. For the married gentleman among us; you know "She Who Shall Be Obeyed" takes precedence over any perceived free time you thought you may have. (Then again, maybe it's just me.)

I park in the garage again because I took up a room in the basement and moved everything indoors. There is another glimmer of light at the end of tunnel too. I've negotiated with my employer to share the load with others so that I can get some degree of normality back. I'm actually home trying get through 300+ emails and pack myself for another trip. My dearest has blessed me with a father's day present I can't pass up. She has seen fit to line up a 10 day fishing trip for me. She even talked to my employer to set up the time off. She got me an 18 year old to take on the trip too. (Glenfiddich) Bless her heart! I think I'll keep her.

If your interest has changed when I contact you, I'll understand. The next person in line will be contacted. Anyone who was looking for a memory card should know that 16MB & 20MB cards are a no-go. The 4MB cards are plentiful and brand new. (small victories)
