Question What's everyone doing while sitting on reserve today....

Just sitting on-call/reserve watching it rain today.

Anyone else doing the same?

I fly almost every reserve day. When I don't, I take care of honey-dos.

Installed an anchor on the boat. With gas at $3.39 at the dock I'm going to spend a lot more time at anchor this summer.

Plumming a rental house as part of a kitchen remodel....good times.

HSLD,

What kind of boat do you have? Sail/Motor?

Boats are baaaaaaaad...my weakness. There is just something about the water that puts me at peace. Plus I am a HUGE Buffett fan...so that probably doesn't help either

Good thread. So what about you commuters that are at the crashpad and have no car? There is only so many times that I can read this forum.

I feel your pain! I commuted to ORD for 6 years and swore that off for good. Living within driving distance of your domicile is the only way to sit reserve IMO. For all you guys in a crash pad, hats off to you, I couldn't do it.

Installing cabinets in the rental today, carpet on Thursday.

I've done both, in Alaska I had a sailboat in Seward which was a blast. Now that I'm in Puget Sound, there is plenty of wind but also plenty of current (8 knots in the Narrows at ebb and flood). So these days I have twin mercruisers

Buffett put's on a great show, I've seen him 4 times and alway had a blast. Of course the boat has his entire collection onboard (next to the blender).
