@don_pipone - i realized i‘d have the jacekt for about 2 month when i hand it to you in august - so i might ship it to you a bit earlier. Also i wasn‘t able to wear the tour jacket as much as i wanted to because it got really warm here, so there are more beer pics than jacket pics. Week was full of work, there wasn‘t that much to photograph but here are some impressions from the last days:
Tried a aspargus - strawberry salad on friday - 110% recommended! Great stuff!
Tried our best to force babyboy to become a professional death metal drummer - at least: we tried!
Cooked a meal, had a beer, got us some ice cream and finally got to wear the tour jacket again
Reflections Edition:
Another beer pic from Berg, one of my fav breweries in southern germany, right around the corner where my parents in law live, they use locally grown ingredients and i never had a bad beer from Berg!
We spent the weekend at my parents place so i had an espresso in the morning and packed the car - and enjoyed the green where i grew up:
My parents love to grow all kinds of vegetables and food so we had to help them eat all those nice and tasty strawberries…
After some hard training on „how to walk“ and some lazy home office my dad served us a tasty BBQ and we also had some decent beers together.
And as summer decided to finally break out we were invited to another BBQ at dome good friends place - but first i had a swim:
After we got home, un-packed the car and put baby boy to sleep i enjoyed some last IPA‘s with mama and realized i might have focused on my beer-gains a bit too mich the last weeks. I‘ll try and take a step back on this…
That‘s it for now - I hope to wear the jacket a few times more next week and will be able to serve some more pics of this. Also i‘m debating with myself what patch I‘ll sew on that one. Wifey said every patched jacket needs a „Slayer“ patch … [emoji848]

Decided to use the few minutes spare time to browse my pictures and share them here - Not much going on, most days are packed with work, swimming in the morning, entertaining babyboy and trying to go to bead early… some highlights here and there like our weekend trip to southern germany to visit my parents in law and to see Rammstein with some dear friends!
We made a stop halfway cause we‘re not into 9-10 hour drives. Mama took the opportunity for some shopping, the boys took selfies... and visited a playground.
The next day daddy in law served cold beer when we arrived. As he lives in a small village (only 60 people living there) it is really quiet and peacefully. And the scenery invites for long walks. Babyboy loves it so much he always sleeps all the time…
Took the tourjacket with me, was a bit windy here and there, had to share it with mama in the end and that‘s the first time when she was exited about IH and refused to take off the jacket.
Her shoes tell that she‘s a professional hiker:
Sunday = Rammstein. It‘s not my fav band but it was about 20 years ago and i never saw them live so i had to get a ticket. Even when it‘s not my preferred music anymore the show was great and packed with fire and explosions. Great entertainment and some of the new tunes were really catchy. Meet our dear friends from Munich and hab a blast: @don_pipone sporting full IH Heavy Metal Festival Body Armour…
Had to change the tour jacket for my battle vest (attention to the nice photo bomb skills)
Rammstein-Beer. Pretty OK.
Fire!!!
Now that we‘re back home i‘m back at my alcohol free and reading routines. Have a great day folks!

Great update and yes, it was a total blast at the Rammstein concert with you guys! Look forward to see you in August!
PS: Had to laugh out loud about the professional hiking gear of your wife!

Last weekend we had the christening feast for our boy. It was a great weekend, lots of great food and much family hangouts plus: weather was great the last days, summer kicks in in full effect. The negative effect: the tour month for me is almost over and i‘ll pass the jacket over to @don_pipone who is next in line. Some impressions for you:
Party jacket in good company with the homies IH-526L & 3Sixteen Type :
Packed some essentials for the trip to the family base and visited a good friend who lives on the way home. We used to make party a lot during studies, now it‘ all about dadlife in full effect, feels great!
When we arrived at my parents place we started to make salads for the family BBQ, and made some cake. Don‘t forget to drink enough in the heat and hang out as much as possible in the garden
To be continued….

Part II
Wifeys Cousin is the most talented musician i know, our boy was fascinated. My brother joined the party with his son and wife and i prepared a BBQ for us. I love when the family comes together in the summer, quality time! Even better with some beers from my collection.
On Sunday we continued to celebrate at the church and continued to stuff ourself with great food. Only thing that i‘ll never understand is that the while family gets crazy with presents for the kids.
Bonus pics of the Tour jacket. It was a party. I had to take with me.

That falafel looks amazing. Is that basically chick peas three ways?! Need.
it is. had it the first time this way and i'm thinking more and more it's the only way falafel should be served. Tasty AF

Sewing time - It may be much too warm for the jacket atm but nevertheless it makes me a bit sad to let it go…. Hope all of you who will get the jacket down the road will enjoy it as much as i did!

I owned this patch for years, always waiting for the right garment to sew it on. It was Constantin & Sascha from Vater & Sohn that sold me my first IH denim and a few days later my first UHF and lead me into well made stuff and convinced me that it's worth it to spend a bit more and have joy for years! Also the design is pretty cool for my taste, too @sabergirl
-
Nice patch @illo59
I don't even got the jacket yet but I am already racking my brain what patch I am going to add

Last wear for this leg - bye bye tour-jacket!
