Holding trout?
For 15 years, it was following these guys around the country...
Now it's not.

Wow! VERY impressive cakes, poo flinger!TreeSaw said:I like to bake and have been known to make some fun cakes.
I love to read, go camping, fishing, hunting and snowmobiling.
And, I am pretty good at drinking as well (mmm....bourbon)

one fish two fish stinky hippy jam band phishjacksonpt said:
yea, I gathered from Ciaran's artwork. If their music was half as good as his e-drawing, maybe I would have recognized the pics.Yossarian said:
I don't pretend to understand music - I just listen to what I enjoy. They may very well be a tallented band, I just don't care for their music.Toshi said:i am quite far from a stinky hippy myself, and am somewhat of a music snob in my own limited range (classical
I also find it amusing when people are shocked when you don't recognize a band (known for their music) from a picture - two different senses.
Maybe I should have been more general and said that "seeing live music" was my other hobby.
When I'm not biking I'm either paddling or doing living history stuff.

Nice. Were you the one building a kayak a while back? If so, is that the one? how'd it turn out?BikeGeek said:When I'm not biking I'm either paddling or doing living history stuff.

Yep, that's it. It turned out better than I imagined it would. Tracks really straight and it's fast. I can't wait to try it in the surf next month.jacksonpt said:
wow... looks beautiful. Nice work.BikeGeek said:
Yeah, the whole story is here:stosh said:

Nice dude! Do you do strict re-enactment? What time periods do you re-enact? Cultures? What group do you participate in? Looks like a lot of fun!BikeGeek said:When I'm not biking I'm either paddling or doing living history stuff.

I don't do strict re-enactment. We try to be as authentic as possible but are more free form/role play when it comes to our personnas. We are strictly history though. We do NOT do Lord of the Rings/fantasy stuff. No wizards or orcs or any of that stuff. If it didn't really exist, we don't do it. (Well those of us who really try, anyway)
Thanks. We do some reenactment but, much like you, we mostly do "living history."Ciaran said:
I started out in the SCA, but got tired of pouring tons of time into research only to have someone wearing elf-ears and a chainmail bikini ask me if I'd seen a wizard in the area. I kinda dug the bikini though. I moved on to the English Civil War (1642-1649) because I was facinated by the combination of a medieval-like style of warfare, ie swords, armor, etc., with gunpowder playing an important role. A typical battlefield for us has armored cavalry, pikeman, musketeers, and artillery. Fun stuff. As much as I like the battle reenactment stuff, most of my group's time is spent doing early colonial interpretation at places like Jamestown, Salem, and Plymouth. The name of the group is Sir Thomas Blackwell's Regt of Foot. We're the 3rd company. The first 2 companies are in England.
The "Redcoat" pic is from when I was turning out with the 42nd Highlanders for Revolutionary War events. I haven't done much of that lately.
Ooo..Oooooo....and the elf ears please!!stosh said:
That was the other problem. A majority of the people who wore them had no business even being near them. Try google.stosh said:
Instead of a park ranger or history prof standing in front of a tour group explaining, for example, how a post and waddle fence was made, there would be a bunch of us in historically accurate clothing using accurate tools to build one. "Early colonial" was the time period.stosh said:

Here in the local SoCal SCA groups if we see elf ears or chain bikinis we (much like here) publicly shame the n00b and then get them drunk and send them off to the loaner garb trunk. And if you're not a n00b and you have on elf ears we duct tape you to a tree. We tend to leave the fantasy and Zena imposters to the Rennaisance Faire.BikeGeek said:
sometimes i combine two hobbies.
i took my MTB to a few geocaches in lynn woods over the weekend. im starting to get back into that
also, odd that i only noticed a few other white water runners. Im doing the Maine-iac trifecta this summer, Dead, 'Nob, and Kennebec
Dead river @7000cfs in May
We are doing the Penobscot "Double Trouble" through the Cat V Rip gorge x2 in August and also hitting the Kennebec @8000cfs in September
Some other pics from the Kennebec last year
Next summer were heading down to the Gauley in WV

I'll have to scan my Pennsic pics for you sometime, if I can find them. Sure, it's a whole lot of rattan and duct tape, but it's pretty cool to see a couple thousand people fighting. I always got taken out early.Ciaran said:

Please change your sig.Ciaran said:And I stole the e-drawing too.
I just thought that other then the Dead what other hippy jam bands are there?
I've seen Phish twice. Incredible shows, fun parking lot.
And I shower! I do! Really! Just not before a Phish show.
War re enactment. Why god why. I'm going to e-cry.

lunken8r, do you ever run the gap or the dryway? a bunch of my freinds who are ski instructors, guide in the summer and i tend to get free trips. two springs ago we would hike a mtn and ski it in the am, and run the gap at flood stage in the afternoon. one time we dumptrucked in this hole, and i was the only one who stayed in the raft, and i'm a novice paddler. bad ass stuff.
here is a skiing one i found, 50ft gap over a driveway, and you had to be towed by a snowmobile, and at 40mph you could clear it. i have to find a better pic.
Until a few years ago when My Father Passed, He and I enjoyed Racing our Dragster. He as the Crew Chief and I as the Driver.
Drag Racing brought alot of good times to our family for over 30 years...
I sure do miss him and the good times we had together...
