It will be fun.

[fehchet]

Basically I work 7 months a year (April through October) and have 5 months off (November to the end of March). It has been in my head for about a month that leaving on <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:date Year="2009" Day="1" Month="1">January 1, 2009</st1:date> for a 3 month hike north would be fun. Shorter days beginning to get longer and crisp air from time to time. I'd like to share the odyssey with an equally crazy sole. By the end of March we probably would be well up into PA. I’d have to jump on a train and head for my job at <st1:place><st1:PlaceName>Acadia</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType>National Park</st1:PlaceType></st1:place> in <st1:State><st1:place>Maine</st1:place></st1:State>. At that point, if you want a job then come along to <st1:State><st1:place>Maine</st1:place></st1:State> with me. I’m the boss – you’re hired. (No drug screening.) We are talking win/win here. LOL
I’ll be 63 on July 30. I’m male and have hiked all my life in all seasons of the year. My trail name is “that guy”. This year as others, I go out for 10 mile hikes most afternoons on all the carriage roads and hiking trails in and out of <st1:place>Acadia</st1:place>. My work chores are done by <st1:time Minute="0" Hour="11">11AM</st1:time> and then I have Shangri-La to venture in.
Let me know and we can plan.

I may just be crazy enough for that. Especially if there is a decent job at the end.;)

Hmmm, not sure if I have a warm enough sleeping bag. How about I meet you in Damascus mid Feburary?

[fehchet]

The job would be in a one of several restaurants and clubs on Mount Desert Island. I work at the oldest of the bunch -- a restaurant, bakery, and deli combo . The job might not start until mid-April.

[fehchet]

Hey, Sly, That sounds great.

[Jason of the Woods]

Any management postions?

[Sly]

Any management postions?

I think you have to be atleast 18 for one of those. :p Hey That Guy, have a bartending job?.

[Jason of the Woods]

That was a good one. God, I wish that I was 18 again.;)

[fehchet]

Management positions are possible in some form but it is hard to predict until we see who all are returning for the next season. That is the best I can give you at the monment.

[Jason of the Woods]

Send me your email in a PM and I'll forward my resume to you.

[fehchet]

You could bartend at the Tan Turtle in NEH,ME. It is a busy little place down the street.

Not that I'd mind the hiking but, if that's the case, I may very well take you up on the offer. What about housing?

I'll be home in a week and will contact you via email.

[fehchet]

Sounds good Sly. There is housing there but I know not much as the Tan Turtle is not in my group. We have a bar in Bar Harbor oddly enough but I'm not sure its activity -- the bar is connected to a popular restaurant. Probably a busy spot.
Talk to you in a week or so.
