Other obsessions and hobbies or other. 🙃

Finally decided on a replacement for the Supra. I wasn’t sure about the Competition yellow until I saw it in person, plus it’s a nod to my daughter to whom I always gave a yellow rose on Valentine’s Day.

Day and night

recent pics of the house.

Stunning! Beautiful pics and property.

What kind of camera? We bought our son a high end Sony for his graduation gift. He takes some beautiful pics with it.

I did some research and settled on the SONY RX10M4 bridge camera.
That said, the night time pics were taken with my Google Pixel 6 and tweaked in Photoshop.

Nice! I really like the mid engine Corvette. I'd love to own one some day but my '15 Camaro SS is gonna have to do for now. I like the updates to the interior for '26. The 'wall' with the AC switches seemed intuitive enough but I like that they went back to a little more typical layout.

Thanks. The Camaro is a good performance value. I nearly bought a 20 SS 1LE instead of the Supra. That car sounded great. Only thing that worried me a bit was the synchro grind in the Tremec when it's cold. That actually happened to me on my test drive. I wish Chevy didn't abandon the Camaro. Hopefully they'll bring it back one day.

Yeah, it does feel a bit more open without the wall of switches in the 26; however it isn't worth over $6k to me which is the price jump from the 25 to 26 model.

I had a 2013 1LE. Loved it. Traded it to get into the Jeep world. The car was the first year of the 1LE, and the only year the 5th Gen 1LE was available in Inferno Orange. I miss it - but it would not have given me the practically life changing experiences I've had in my two Jeeps, so there's that. I added a separate clutch master cylinder and it helped some with the 1-2 shift grind, but I always had to make sure I stomped the clutch through the carpet on the 1-2 to get a clean high RPM shift

The one I have now is 2015 2SS - every option but the Recaros and it's an auto. It's my paw paw car, lol. Cold air, some wheel spacers to make the stock wheels look more aggressive, and a cat back.

Tractor therapy. I guess we can call it a hobby.

Hell, if it involves an engine or fire, I'm all over it. :P
Tractors, UTVs, boiling sap, smoking meat, guns, cigars.... all good.

My son recently got into 3D printing,
He made these for me:
Keys holder,

And a Jeep clock,

I got one a few months ago. We have no business having this sort of equipment for our paltry bit of land but whatever. Fulfilling childhood dreams. Its been helpful. Use the pallet folks more than anything.
