I'll add cooking to my list.

Made this for brinner a couple nights ago, the best spin on eggs benedict ever! Potato/apple latkes as the base, paprika/all-spice candied bacon, perfectly poached egg (SWMBO did them and it was her first time poaching!), and traditional hollandaise. Holy carp it's amazing... and all from scratch.

They look great.

That's one band that I will still try to get to see when they play locally.

Seen them prolly 10-15 times. Only in the last couple years have they started to look their age. Don't think I'd throw down $30 to see them anymore, and they're one of my alltime favorite bands.

Softball, softball, and more softball...gets expensive though. Play all over the Midwest.

Also, BBQ, Firearms, my daughter/wife, and music...

Not cool man, not cool at all.

She's my daughter, she's my sister, my daughter, my sister!!!

Michigan whitetails come first.

Josh14025 · Feb 25, 2012

looks like a basic pile of crap now, but I'll upload an "after" pic later. my KZ750 cafe/streetfighter project bike

jafo28 · Feb 25, 2012

That's an awesome bike. My first bike was a KZ650, I loved that bike. Ahh, memories.

Old-Ned · Feb 26, 2012

This was an obsession, but I think brewing is taking over.

KayaBrew · Feb 28, 2012

Powder skiing in the Alta backcountry

My current rig...dreaming of a new one soon!

Mountain biking! These trails are 5 minutes from where I live...

davekippen · Feb 28, 2012

Nice thread! Here are some of mine...

Discgolf is and brewing are tied for #1
Jeepin is a passion but I cant seem to get out and do it very much..
And I love playing and watching soccer!

RobMT · Feb 29, 2012

The downhill rig

And an action shot from a race this past summer taken shortly after eating **** in the rock garden.

Another for good measure

Summer time can't come soon enough...

I'm with you, Rob! Do you ever ride/race at Whiteface? I live less than 10 minutes from there, and do a lot of riding there as well as skiing. I'm about to pull the trigger on a used Yeti DH bike.

I'm jealous. I'm currently deciding if I want to start playing. A friend plays the banjo for The Crane Wives in Grand Rapids and has just started giving lessons. Only problem is I live 2 hours away.

GO GREEN!!!

I went to MSU for grad school...

cravej · Feb 29, 2012

The only reason I can't brew more often, is because I'm autocrossing.

You don't need lessons. Just dive in and never look back!

Rivenin · Feb 29, 2012

Bugging SWMBO

Makes 210 at the wheels right now with its tired 2.1L, I'm just waiting until I start bringing in a real paycheck to do a proper build.

Basketball season!!

Thunder up!

I usually have to sit in the nose bleeds

I also love cooking

This is a chocolate pasta with bay scallops in a cream sauce and a side of roasted broccolini the wife and I made for valentines. We also make a ton of homemade ice cream and other fun stuff.

GroosBrewz · Mar 1, 2012

I ave WAAAYYY too many hobbies... I am into beekeeping, growing mushrooms and making mushroom kits to sell, gardening, fishing, playing guitar, fly tying, dutch oven cooking, collecting comic books, and a ton of other crap... Only live once! The pics include a big old german brown trout from last year, me tending to one of my beehives, a gardening basket that my wife and I entered in the fair (and won first place!), a dutch oven contest that my wife and I and some friends put on for the Boy Scouts, and one of my mushroom kits.

TURBO BRICK! HELLZ YEAH! :rockin::rockin::rockin::rockin:

I love a 242 Turbo... My current ride is a 945 Turbo... I get a wicked thrill out of surprising people with the wagon

jerryteague · Mar 1, 2012

I'm a guitar nut. Don't get to gig much anymore because of work, but I play when I can. In the band pic, I'm the guy on the right with the Telecaster. Oh, and beer, lots of beer.

Yeah this thing was a PITA more often than not for a while, but I finally got it running okay after ditching k-jet and installing MS. The tune still isn't that great because my JAW O2 sensor is just about as reliable as a narrowband it seems, but it sure beats the old jetronic any day of the week.

It's really fallen to the wayside since I started brewing, but one day when I get enough money I'll finally get around to dropping in the 16v head I have sitting in the garage. I'm assuming you're on TB as well? I haven't hit that board up in months I'm pretty sure, mainly because I haven't done diddly to my car. One day though...

you shouldn't make hash its illegal

Just scoped this little shooter in .260 Remington. At under 8 lbs scoped, hopefully it shoots well with reloads and makes for a nice walking around gun that reaches out way past what a .30-30 lever gun can.

Native302 · Mar 4, 2012

Here is the Beast...my other obsession

I hate to let it go but it is for sale :-(

stixobutta · Mar 4, 2012

Now I just have to figure out how to brew on the boat...

jtkratzer · Mar 4, 2012

Today's results, first time on the range with the .260:

129 gr Hornady SST, 2.800 COL, Federal 210 Gold Match Primer, R-P Brass, 46.0 gr H4381sc. This was the best 100 yard group out of the 4 powder charges I shot today.

CharlesKelley · Mar 4, 2012

Rock climbing, trout fishing, and hiking.
Also road biking and backpacking, but I don't have pictures of that at hand.

zacjack · Mar 4, 2012

Backpacking

Shooting stuff

My Jeep:

Listening to music

Fishing / Going to the beach

My awesome dog:

Dude, I freakin' love Maine, and want to learn to do that so bad!

jtkratzer · Mar 11, 2012

Found a better load today - 0.438" - 0.264" = 0.174". Not bad for a 3 shot group at 100.
