Our place is 109 years old now.
Some would call it home improvement, although, I seem to spend most of my time keeping it habitable.
New roof last week.

Old School Gambrel 2nd floor,,, AKA 'your house looks like barn'

Inspired me to replace the deck, while I had the big garbage trailers here.

More of a lifestyle, than a hobby; a have a bad case of biofillia. We chose this house partly necause it is only a couple blocks from the river. We go there, every chance I get. View attachment 83406
Our house was built in 1949 when we bought it in 2015 I got in the fireplace with a cutting torch & cut the fireplace hardware & put in a stainless chimney liner & wood burning insert then built the mantle shelf for the fireplace it's nice to warm myself on a winter evening or have a fire with my morning coffee had to replace roof on our old house before we sold it 20211001_193622.jpg 20211001_193545.jpg

Sweet cruiser, I like that size lift you've got on it. Did you go OME, or other for it?
Mines a silver 95 I take to the hills here in CO.
I do a lot of mountain biking, whitewater kayaking and try to bring my pups with me wherever I go.. Especially when we take the Land Cruiser out..
Oh and music.. I love music!
Always have dogs to hang out with have a 6 month old aussie now

Snowboarding. I love snowboarding, even though I am in a flat ass midwest town. We got a small hill and one of the best terrain parks in the entire midwest, so I grew up a rail rat riding street stuff. Got out of snowboarding to pursue a career in teenage drinking and drug use, and fell out of it for over a decade. Finally picked it up again a couple years ago and its like I never missed a beat. I've been thinking about it obsessively since the spring and we're only a month or two away again!! very excited.

I like to hike, hang out with my dogs, and ride my bike. I've played drums since I was a youth, and have on and off when it has been available, due to not everywhere you can just set up a fuckin' drumset and wail on it lol. I "taught" myself banjo, I can play it and know scales and such but have never bothered learning a single song. I can actually clawhammer/drop thumb pretty proficiently. I just prefer to pick it up, make up some shit, set it down and walk away. Man, @HydroRed I might have to work out an electric banjo situation with ya here in the future!

Theres a bunch of other shit too, I did wet taxidermy for a minute, and a bunch of other short lived hobbies. But I'm a recovering alcoholic and lost a good portion of my teens and 20's to alcohol and drug use. My new hobby is rebuilding a better life.
Rebuilding is a good hobby

Im like GC....I've got a million hobbies and will probably pick up another before Im done typing this.
I love wrenching & restoring. Ive done a ton of restorations including everything from old train lanterns, to pre war bikes, to classic cars. Sometimes making an old item new can be more fun than the item itself. Ive got a thing for building guitars and electric cigar box guitars & amps too. Hand made from the fretboard to the pickups. They aren't wall hangers either, they jam!

It's got about 10inches of OME and Dobinsons.. Hoping to LS swap it in the next year.. I got rid a locked 97 anniversary edition last year and am really regretting it with the pricing these days.
Hoping to add a 60 at some point as well..

What part of CO? We try to get a Colorado/Moab trip in every now and again.. Funds have been pretty tight lately though with everything going on..
Lakewood, in the foothills near Red Rocks.
Love it here.
I'd be sad to if I'd gotten rid of that 97, they're getting really hard to find. Guy in my neighborhood has one done up really nice. Good 80's are getting harder to find, and getting pretty spendy now.
Heck I've had my cruiser for 13 yrs now, it's worth more than I bought it for, and she just goes and goes. Lol.
Haven't gotten out to Moab, but I've gone all over here in CO. Love getting out there in the hills, or heading for a lake.
