Captainfab On Vacation

Well after 10 years since my last vacation and working 7 days/80 hrs a week for as long as I can remember, I am taking a vacation in August from the 8th thru the 24th.

I will be in Norway for my vacation, something I have been wanting to do for 40 years. I will try and answer PM's and emails best I can, but I obviously won't be building and shipping orders for 17 days.

Just posting this to let everyone know what's going on and why I won't be here on the forum everyday like I have been for years.

Re: Captainfab On Vacation

I have a friend who lives near you in Mullan. From what I hear and see I understand why you haven't taken a vacation in so long. Living up there, every day is like a vacation.

Norway should be real nice in August, enjoy

Unfortunately living here is not a vacation for me. It's not easy to make a living.

Yes August is Norway's warmest month although it should be a nice relief from our typical August temps here in the 90's. Norway should be in the 70's.

Re: Captainfab On Vacation

Thanks guys

I've been having to work a bunch of extra hours in addition to my usual 80 hrs a week to try and get everything done for everyone before I leave. I'm thoroughly exhausted and still 12 days to go

Re: Captainfab On Vacation

Thanks Bruce

It's going to be tough to forget about work. I won't have one customer taken care of before I leave and I'll have to hit the ground running when I get back. I'm gonna try though.
