      We went for a little walk around Chaska Sunday morning (the town adjacent to ours). Directly behind me in the first picture is the Chaska curling center, and we often host Olympic teams from around the world for events.

      Pic #2 is my best @Alex posing impression

      The WTJ look amazing in natural light. If this doesn’t convince my wife that I need a pair, I’m not sure what will. And and all encouraging useable quotes from this community would be much needed supporting fuel.

          Fishing opener was last weekend. My buddy and I fish every Saturday morning at 6 A.M.

          It was a little slow but we didn't get skunked.

          The world tour jeans have a little fish slime on them, which is character building.

            I fully concur with this statement. In fact all WTJ should get fish slime on them from noe on.

            Great update again.  You’re doing stellar work here.

              my wife loves LLama yoga (it's yoga with llamas all around, but not much yoga)
              I was the only guy out of a group of around 25. I think I made a good choice to go.
              The one we are holding is 3 days old.
              The World Tour jeans would not have been a good outfit choice for this outing

                Those llamas are really cute! I didn't know that llama yoga is a thing, though. Sounds nice.

                  this has to be the worst MN May on record. Cold and rainy. we continue to have to go out to ranch (1 hr round trip) to put blankets on the horses. We did have a nice night out to eat at Martina with family, but I'm not a picture taker at restaurants. This was an incredible beef tartare bruschetta.

                        thanks @neph93. I think I found the cut I would love to own in IH jeans.

                        In related news, this is the last stop on the tour before I send them back to @Megatron1505 for the final leg with the OG owner of the jeans. I have one more week with these beauties.

                        Our lives are all a bit "rinse and repeat", but I put these through the paces as best I could over the first 3 weeks.

                        I still have the wife's birthday, Memorial holiday, and more fishing, so I hope to end with a bang.

                          Excellent tour leg @jordanscollected , I’m afraid that the final leg of this tour will mean these suckers getting seriously messed up as they join me the in the joys of renovating a Victorian house when we move next month  😎

                            That sound like a perfect ending to the tour!!!

                            much better than the ending of Game of Thrones, and the IH story is writing itself.

                                  We went down to St Paul for a quick mini date night. St. Paul is Minnesota’s capital city. (many think it’s minneapolis). Pizza at Cosetta. A massive Italian eatery.

                                    As Craig Finn said «St. Paul had it all when we called». Looks like he was refering to the pizza [emoji1]

                                      More time with the horses. Training takes a long time and is a slow process. Confidence (even if your faking it) is the key to gaining trust with a horse. If you are scared, they will take full advantage.

                                      I shattered my softball bat last Monday on a 3 homerun night. The new bat is here and I hope it brings as much success as the one going in the trash.

                                      A few more pics from our mini St. Paul date. the river has been flooded all year causing road closures and chaos all over the state.

                                        Grilling and Fishing is my rinse and repeat in the summer. The color on this bass looks like it's CGI. Please forgive the non-world tour denim as it was supposed to be an 85 degree day and then it inexplicably hovered around 60 with high winds

                                          And as quick as it began, it has been 30 days and my time is up….

                                          I want to thank @Megatron1505 for "forgetting" that these were in circulation so they could land in my lap for one of the last legs of the tour.

                                          Also, I will not be sending chocolate back with these as I worry about them getting hung up at International customs.

                                          However Gavin, when you receive them check the watch pocket there's something in there for you.

                                          lastly @Giles, no one in MN carries your brand. What is the best method to change that? the best bet would be BlackBlue https://www.blkblu.com/ followed by Martin Patrick3 https://www.martinpatrick3.com/

                                            Thank you @jordanscollected , you have honoured the tour with a fantastic last leg on the road. I move house in a little over two weeks, so if you won’t get a chance to ship them out any time soon please hang on to them for another couple of weeks and i’ll Send you my new address 👍
