Off for the next 11 days...live in AL - what to do?

You are welcome to come up here, fix my truck and paint my house.. ;)

Seriously though, in Alabama, I'd be fishing and hog hunting every day.
 
What part of Alabama? I'd be in the gulf eating seafood and looking for a fishing guide. I work in Mobile every so often and have looked into fishing guides. Local Drum/trout or offshore you name it fishing can be had between $400-800 and it is some great fishing down there. The Biloxi area is nice too if you want to eat and play. Good food and new casinos.
 
Not sure what north Alabama or Tennessee has to offer but I recently spent some time in North Georgia. Some pretty country up there in the mountains.

If you have absolute freedom, I'd start driving west and throw a dart at the map. Always wanted to do that, but days off are usually dedicated to hunting season.

OMG, the options are endless. dont know if your married and/or have children but

with children--disneyworld great family time, depending on age of children --or possibly grand children

or

with or without children a trip down the Colorado river in the Grand Canyon, a cruise to the Bahamas or fly to the Bahamas and stay at the Atlantis --both the wife and children will thank you and/or just the wife, fly to Alaska ( the peninsula ) this time of year and fish, fish and more fish or even jump over to Nome and watch the finish of the Iditarod dog sled race---that is a real experience, and it is happening, right now. If just you and your wife, Las Vegas can be fun for a few days, treat her to a spa day while there, plenty of ocean fishing down south of you and we haven't even headed to Europe yet--or Hawaii or Tahiti --if Tahiti reserve a suite build over the ocean with a glass floor and watch the fish swim by, get a tan, relax on the beach, and swim in the ocean off your porch --also up by Jackson Hole Wy, they have dog sled companies that will take you to a natural mineral spa via a dog sled through the snow--later snowmobiles, plus go on a sled pulled by horses when feeding the wild Elk in the reserve at Jackson Hole--wonderful experience --pm me if you have questions or want more suggestions

p.s. oops, sorry, got all wound up and forgot. Regardless of what you do sir, enjoy your time off.

All wise suggestions my friends! Money is pretty tight, but I've got a few ideas - mainly fishing related. Turkey season opens here on the 16th, so I'm sure I can keep myself busy prepping for that.
 
Shed hunting, turkey prep, target shooting, fishing, bow tune-up, scout public lands, sell unwanted stuff on ebay, have or shop at a garage sale, go kayaking or canoeing, do some light camping, finish your big-game apps, reloading, collect a ton or two of scrap metal and sell it to buy hunting gear, plant some food plots, prune your trees, re-pack a go-bag, make some sausage from leftover meat.

I really hate that I don't have the next 11 days off too......
 
I went out this morning to my listening post on public land to try to locate some turkeys. I didn't hear any, but I did find this 6pt whitetail deadhead. Unfortunately, it looks to have been there for quite a while and the squirrels had ravaged it. Still a cool find though and was good to put some miles on the Kennetreks.
