    Good shit @Brock and beautiful family.

    Trivia: Timberline Lodge is where some of the exterior shots of the hotel in The Shining come from, though Stephen King was inspired by the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, CO, and I think pretty butthurt that it wasn’t used. He hated the film for that and whatever other reasons. He’s wrong on that.

    The Stanley does market around being The Shining hotel and loops the film on one of their channels endlessly. It’s in Rocky Mountain National Park, which is gorgeous, though Estes Park is a bit touristy for my taste.

    Think it, be it.

          I guess this could count as Leisure or Family. This is my puppy daughter. I found her 3 yrs ago out in the desert of Nevada. Someone appeared to have used her for puppies and dumped her. She was skin and bone. I spent an hour trying to get her as she stayed out of reach eating only the Blueberry crackers I'd toss to her. About to give up I started the car and waited. She came over and climbed in. Turned her in to the SPCA and nobody claimed her so went back and got her. Named her Blueberry and we do everything together. The drive through people at the coffee shop hooked her up with some ham so she can participate 😃

            Great contributions, everyone!!

            Here’s a little glimpse at my work life at the circ desk of the public library:

            Fortunately, we have no dress code, so I can wear all my IH gear however I like.

                Hi all my real name is Dan and yeah I get called Double Denim Dan quite a lot. I’ve been an industrial radiographer for thirty years now. On site we get called bombers. The equipment we use is built to penetrate through metal and carbon fibre. When I was an apprentice I X-Rayed a rose for a girl and made it into card. Dam I was silly. This gave me an idea. What if I could X-Ray some jeans on some old out of date film that doesn’t cost anything and no one cares about in my break time?
                I’m sorry as well I did a man search on the pockets and just tapped them down and left some sweet wrappers in them. These jeans are 25oz 777 in 31” waist but the biggest film size available was 35x43 cm so I couldn’t fit everything on. The 13 Fe EN thing is an IQI image quality indicator for steel but these are iron. Don’t put things in your pocket and think that it’s clean the pockets catch everything and trap it. ???

                  More serious heat on the comp… I don't envy the judges!

                      That is amazing @Gammaman 🤯

                      And to everyone: Enjoy your morning and don’t forget to have a coffee!
                      I was enjoying mine ☕️

                      In the picture:
                      Dumbass me missing 1/2 spouts (the one I caught was tasty though!)
                      IHSH-156 with flipped collar (so it fits in the picture)
                      Ilse (that’s what I call my lovely ECM)

                      Use it or lose it.

                        I'm currently living in Benalla, which is about 200 km, or 140 miles northeast of Melbourne. About the only thing to happen of note here was that Ned Kelly, who rocked an epic beard and a homemade suit of armour, got into a scuffle at the local bootmaker in 1877.

                        The shop survives, but it's a café these days.

                        There's a plaque on the door commemorating the event.

                        Along with a sign outside telling the story.

                        And for IH content, here's a selfie. I'm wearing my old Heavyweight Denim Championship t-shirt under my bib.

                            I live in Greater London, but work in Cambridge. A lot of development at the Science Park, where I work, over the pandemic. Two years ago, this was a field:

                            Here’s me buying a bogata and fries with aioli. I don’t have pics of the food, I scoffed it.

                              Car culture is big here.  Burqueno is what they call something that’s very “Albuquerque.”  These guys who meet up with their hot rods and low riders every weekend we’re pretty Burqueno.

                                  Thanks, [mention]Matt [/mention] . You’re killing it as usual with these great shots of Burque. I’ve only visited once, but I do have extended family there, so I’d love to explore more.

                                      @weftyarn not to rub it in, but the bocata was stuffed with grilled chorizo, peppers, aioli, goats cheese. Pure, delicious filth 😂

                                        That would be great.

                                          This is my favorite picture competition yet and it’s not even over. Great job all and thank you @neph93 and stubborn crew.

                                          This image is from my first winter in Denver. It popped up in my Google photo memories this morning. I was taking the train to work. The A-2 repro gloves I’m wearing here are no more: left one morning on said train. I really miss those. Looks like I was wearing a IH buff check, Alexander shearling, and IHxViberg smokejumpers. I think the jeans may be Strike Gold 3105.

                                          It’s wild to think how much has happened since then and how everything but the gloves is still in rotation. I got on the IH train I think in 2012 in Minneapolis and have never looked back.

                                          Oh, and sorry about my face  😃

                                          Think it, be it.
