RE: How to break it to the wife
Well, you already got hooked for a cruise! Next time you'll have to be much more sneaky.
Now do yourself a favor and think ahead - cause we don't want to hear you whinning again..............DO NOT LET HER PLAN THE CRUISE DURING HUNTING SEASON. Get a grip on this NOW or you'll be sorry!! You plan the cruise where ever she wants, you just pick the time.
