Oh my Brian, I hate to hear that. I haven't ever had 2 weeks off in a row my entire life! Seriously, the most I ever took was one week back in the 80's...well, actually 6 days. Once I started milking regularly around age 13, off days have almost exclusively been a couple days in a row, but dairy meetings gave me up to 4 days in a row. I work 6 days every week. BUT, it is nice being able to come into my own home for a break when I need it, all my meals with Teresa at my own table. Lots of work, but lots of nice benefits as well. I can't imagine having 2 weeks off in one stretch though. The last 20 years, my grand total of days taken off have been about 7 days per year.Ahhh! Summer vacation! Enjoy every minute of it. It's not always possible to get a long break once you start working. I haven't had more than 2 weeks off in a row for almost 30 years. I love summer and am looking forward to retirement so I can have the summers off.

Thanks Rick! And yeah, I also have to read a book for language arts.Enjoy your summer. Do yourself a favor. Read some books too, even instruction manuals are good. Make an effort to retain what you learned so that next year will be a bit easier. I hope that you have a terrific summer. Good Luck, Rick
