Eventually I believe he found a female aquaintence and she joined him on these trips. Just wondering what ever happened to him.
This resembles ME!
I had a trip this past summer that was the longest ever. I never posted it here, but it's on my website that's already been posted.

And you're right he does write interesting trip reports. I'd like to have half the vacation time he gets.
My vacation time isn't as much as you'd think. I only get 12 vacation days a year. I get lengthy vacations in part due to my work schedule which is 3 days on, then 3 days off. So 3 vacation days gets me 9 days off. Add 3 more days of vacation and it jumps to 15. I'm also allowed to swap a shift with someone else that works the opposite days of me, so I always take a week off that way as well (but don't get any pay for doing it). The trip from this past summer was extreme in length because things were very slow and we were shutting down for 1 week a month, so I sandwiched my vacation time between the shut downs.
