Bob, this year will be tuff, but, I'm headed to Texas for Rio's come April. I also want to hunt Ohio, PA and NY as well. I sure hope to squeeze this all in this season!! Yes, some vacation time will surely be involved with this planning!!<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

I'm taking two weeks vacation like I did last year for the last two weeks. I'll also bust my tail to hunt the first two weeks and be on midnight shift. Might have put in for a third week so when it's all said and done, I could rest <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

RE: How many here take....
I'm like Tree climber where my spot is only about 30 minutes from home and work. Of the hunting days (March 25 - April 11 bow, April 12 - 20 shotgun) I usually pick a few morning on a week day and hunt a half day in the morning and either work a half day or work late.
For shotgun season, opening day is always a Saturday and that is the only weekend day I'll hunt. Fortunately I've taken a bird on opening shotgun morning the last three years so I haven't had to do any week day hunts there. However that might change since I'm starting to put rookies behind my blind and just do the calling so they've got to get their bird before I can get mine.

I get 2 weeks vacation each year, I take one week off during turkey season and the other off during deer season. I do get to hunt a couple of hours about every morning of turkey season, I'm just a little late for work on some mornings. If they don't like it, they will just have to get used to it.
