A decent camera, and yeah. Iโve had a fairly good camera for a while, but getting one that takes the photos I see has been a game changer - previously I always felt they needed editing, and I never really had the inclination to learn that very well. Now they mostly look like what I want straight out of camera, so Iโm printing them more often, and enjoying the whole process a lot more

Never in my life did I expect to get excitement and antipation waiting on our very first manure spreader to arrive but here I am, cannot wait for it to get here.
Let me tell you, if you need a manure spreader and don't have one....shit piles up quick.

Electronic Unicycle: it's likely going to kill me, but it's a ton of fun to ride. Mines capable of 60mph/95kmph. Took about a week to ride confidently but definitely worth it. -

I bought a classic Kamado Joe last year. It was a spicy meatball but the meats I make on it are far and above anything I would make with a cheap smoker and it gives me the option to use it as a grill not just a smoker.

O.o I had no idea the specs had improved so much on these things. Range of over 80 miles? That's insane.
Thank you for the sauce, I really appreciate it! (ยฐโฝยฐ)/

Tri clad stainless steel cookware. Getting rid of non-stick pans for healthier living. They're still a thing to get used to, right heat settings and such, but I'm excited.

picking up a new skateboard deck today! i need to get out and get moving again to help recover from a recent injury. itโs been years since iโve ridden but i am super excited! iโd like to also depend less on a car so i can eventually sell it. baby steps, though.

That sounds like great fun! What do you like doing with it?

Remember, start slow, and if you skated in your youth don't be bummed if you can't do the same tricks right away/progress seems slower than it should. Just cruising around is fun as shit no matter who you are (once you get used to maintaining the necessary balance/speed control techniques).Signed, dude in his 30s who stops and restarts skateboarding on a schedule dictated by ankle injuries.

i used to try to learn tricks and such, but i think this time around i will mostly use it for commuting around town/cruising.

thanks for the kind words! i am def gonna be rusty, but since im older im not really focused on tricks or anything like that (yet). im gonna focus on the basics & mostly cruising around/getting my body moving.

Best purchase ever.

Awesome! What'd you get?

A Fuji X-T5, with 16mm f1.4, 35mm f1.4, and 90mm f2 lenses. Iโm sure there are technically better cameras and lenses out there, but itโs fun to use, and takes magic pictures without any real need to edit them. Iโve got a small photo printer, so it works very much like a film camera in the process - shoot, print, look at a physical photo, almost no screen involved
