    well i cant take leave, liberty, leave. So for Thur-Tues being off, i have to pay for fri-sun (i get fridays off now)... which is fine. Due to covid i havent taken any leave really lately and the only times i have in the past 2 years was a wedding and 2 GA camping trips. So i might be alittle close to being over the allowed amount on the books. Also makes it harder to recall.

    That's strange. You're taking the weekend off anyway. How many would you have to take off if you come up Thursday?

    its a stupid policy the CG does and i think the other branches now. Its so we cant take mon-fri off twice in a row and only pay 10 days. i get it. But ive also got so much saved i dont care really. This allows me to come up Wed after work and stay in a hotel somewhere.

    '19 TRD Off Road

    Planning to do this trip for the first time in a 2 weeks with a few buddies. Any tips or hidden gem campsites ya'll would like to share? Favorite trails or areas? Any info would be very much appreciated.

    From what I've read doesn't seem to be too challenging of a trip. Should I be okay with a stock 2019 TRD Off Road? (I have all terrain tires) Heard to avoid Trey mountain as its more technical, although I'm pretty sure its closed currently.

    A bone stock 2wd with racing slicks could make it through the GA traverse! It’s more of a sight seeing/camping trip than a wheeling trip. All dirt and gravel roads.
