Just wondering how many times a month you guys get out on the lake? I would go every day if I could.
Im usually out 1-3 times a week. So I would guess at least 7 times a month or so.

Some of us who have jobs can only come out once or twice a month.

Not enough. With the kids and some of there acitivities we make it out once a month while they are in school, and about twice a month for about 4 days at a time while they are out of school. I will be in Havi for 11 days straight next month though and I can't wait.

After being here over 6 years, I'm lucky if I launch the boat once a week. When I first moved here and for the first few years, I would easily put over 200 hours on each year.
I think you'll find this to be pretty common amongst longtime locals.

We try to get out every other weekend and at least one full week in the summer. Also the week between Christmas and New Years.

Wow, we really do think alike :)
Winter escapes depend on snowbird rental schedule for me though.

Two weekends a month here, but Shasta is 2 1/2 hr drive for us so more often would just be too much.

So you have great employees who take care of things while you are gone. That is nice to have. :rollside:

No such thing as too much when it comes to going to the lake.

Not as much as I would like!!! But at least 2-3 times a month. However I'm staying for a month in August, Havi that is. Can't wait.Maybe I'll get to meet some of you folks while i'm out there.

Once or twice a month....I guess the length of the stay is usually a week or two at a time...

It seems about 1 time every 3 weeks.
I do get in my boat in the garage and make engine noises if that counts.
