For me, many Winter weekends start with breakfast out with the wife, while the rest of the it is spent amateur radio contesting. If I'm not doing that we're either shopping, or visiting our kids who live 4 hours away.
Summer weekend are spent outdoors doing lawn work and clean-up in our woods. I also spend a great deal of time working on antenna projects, and preparing for the Fall start of the contest season.

last few weekends spent fixing things up on the house to get ready and sell. spring cleaning when weather permits.
This weekend the South bend Con FE clutch is going in. In fact I am on a short break trying to figure out where I am going to get a tranny jack.

The question as I currently understand it is "what do you do on the weekends", is that correct? (too many years in the nuke side, three way communications you know).
OK, what do I do on the weekends, well there was the time that I was going to do the, oh wait, that was last year. Crap.
And then I was going to go to the Outer Banks and, oh wait, that's next weekend.
What do I do on the weekends?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Let me see now.
(rolling eyes and twidling thumbs)
(think, what have you done this weekend)
1) visited DTR once
2) visited DTR the second time
3) went to the (oops, thats personal)
4) helped my son put brakes on the 5th Avenue
5) visited DTR while at my sons place (he has cable)
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
give me a minute, I'm thinking.
Can I get back to you on this one??????

What do I do on the weekends? Well lets see........Since I have duty every six days(today being one of those duty days 
) Saturdays are usually spent washing and servicing the car and my truck. Maybe going to the commissary for the grocery loadout. If I don't have duty on Sunday 
, it is off to 8:30 service and then doing a dinner and having the in-laws over, and checking the DTR board numerous times. Sometimes on Saturday night my Wife and I get our 18 month old Grandaughter for a sleepover at Nana and Pap Pap's house 
And at some point if time allows, I go out to the garage and work on one of my Antique John Deere Tractors.

My weekends are just like Chrisreyns. Clean around the barn and work customers horses. I do take time to go watch my youngest son ride bulls and I try to race the truck a little also. And turkey season is fast approaching.
