Default Birthday bear

Was able to take a great bear on my birthday. I take the day off every year and do all my favorite things. I talked my wife into coming this year. She wasn’t too excited to wake up at 5:00, but she was blown away how beautiful it was to watch the sunrise. The icing on the cake was finding a big old chocolate boar. The rest of the day was spent golfing, going out for lunch and watching the elk bulge up in waterton. Will go down as my best birthday yet!

Nice work, now that you have her hooked it will be much easier to get permission. I got indefinite permission by just being useless and my wife being happy to be rid of me for the day but your way works too I suppose.
