Rain and Surf

 

The city went into lock-down last April and by May they called my wife back as "essential." Only days off since then were for my eye surgery last June.  Weekends and holidays she worked from home. (There's no such thing as a holiday in the gaming industry. Well, not for employees.) It appears they are going to allow her to take a week off - provided she takes her laptop with her in case they need her to do something.

So, we're trying to plan a road trip toward the end of the month.

Just to get the hell out of town.









Something to look forward to.

If we make it to a beach, so much the better. The most soothing sounds (to me) are rain - and surf.

Maybe I'll get both, since we're hoping to go to the Pacific Northwest.

I've never seen that part of the country.

Hope you guys get away, and have some relaxing days.

More power to her. She must be burnt out. So many places shorthanded...its almost impossible for the few workers in places to take off....yet so many and many without jobs. Makes no sense.

A road trip is what you guys need.

I love the hole in the leather!

Come to Portland and enjoy our choice of TWO clothing optional beaches on the mighty Columbia River.

Wish you both a wonderful vacation. Fingers crossed for your your wife's phone not to ring during this time, or only for good news :-)
Cheers!

I love driving the car and having my pants down to my ankles. Many times I park the car at a park, sniff some poppers and stroke the cock till I.....ahhh!

Excellent program from all points of view. I hope it can come true and get you off to a good start when you'll be back home.
Starting by a wondrous weekend.

Hugs and bisous, my darlings Jean and Pat.

I am planning on visiting Madison WI at the end of the month. A long weekend. I don't know, though. Infection rates are skyrocketing. It's like we're back at the beginning. My work just issued that if you're in the office - vaccinated or not - you must wear a mask. So, I won't be going in anytime soon. Supposed to return Sept. 6th, but I don't think that is going to happen unless things improve quickly. Have a lovely road trip.

Game developers are essential now? I mean, maybe not essential, but I will say she can telecommute. (And bosses miss being able to sexually harass employees.)

@ Anon - It's not that type of gaming. This is gaming as in casino. Ain't English great? LOL.

@ Rick - we're thinking the other side of the river...but, hey, it would be great to visit the nude beach!

@ HORNY - A nice way to pass an afternoon, isn't it?
