Holidays? We don't get no stinkin' holidays. I'm working Monday. We have to use our vacation time when they want to close. They make up for it by freezing our pay for 5 years and topping that with a salary reduction!
anyways, I'll make the most if it: Saturday at Magic - what could be better!

NOPE!
My weekend:
Thursday - Took a "mental health day" because I needed one. Took the kids to Yankee Candle and Richardson's Candy shop in Deerfield, MA. Drove though some nice foliage on the back roads getting home while the little one napped.
Friday - Since Thursday started with a slew of calls at 8am asking if I could work Monday, I'm taking my day off early and taking the family to Old Sturbridge Village (benefits of homeschooling - field trips occur whenever we damn well feel like it).
Saturday - Not sure, might do some hiking (suggested by my son...).
Sunday - Not sure, might do some hiking. Bicentennial parade in town might get our attention for a bit.
Monday - Working. Apparently we're paving some part of Rt. 12 somewhere in Conn. Long commute to run a quick test on hot-mix... but it is what it is.

My daughter (Keene State, NH) is off Friday and has class Monday.
I, being self-employed, have decided that I am not needed on Monday. : )

No. But I am switching my holiday to the first weekday that Sunday River opens. :beer:
Sat - Picking up mounted skis and then hiking somewhere
Sun - Topsfield Fair
Mon - Working
Working when everyone else has the day off is the best. Add in moving a worthless holiday to something practical like mid-week skiing on the first day of the lift serviced season, and I got good reason to work on Monday with no complaints.

Driving north on Sunday
Moose hunting all week.

Do you think you're going to find much snow? Seems like a waste to carry skis this time of year...
I didn't even realize it was a holiday that some people got off until this thread. Glad I'm not the only one working. I don't get a relocated holiday for it though... :???: Stupid thread, now it's gonna be even harder to get work done on Monday knowing that half my AZ friends are off doing something cool, like cleaning their basement...

We get Columbus Day off this year but we lost Patriot's Day...which I would rather have because most years we take vacation that week. We also exchanged a floater day to get MLK day off, which is a bit of a waste because most ski areas are packed that weekend and we only go 1/2 of the time.
Plan for this weekend is yard work on Saturday and a hike up Pack Monadnock on Sunday. Monday will be another around the house day...may get the skis out for their tune.
