Although this isn’t a contest, I’d say this is the most uplifting picture by far.

Fantastic! I’d love to hear your setup! Always love the McIntosh amps and equipment. My dream setup is some Harbeths and McIntosh tube amp, probably the 275.

B&O was definitely ahead of its time in the styling department.

Your Rolex and...literally anything uplifting or enjoyable to you

Thanks. My son, and I scouting our property to prep for turkey season.

Here’s more fun shots of he, the dog, and I collecting some spring water the other day.

It sprouts right out of the side of the mountains here, and is better than bottled

Since this covid thing I have come to realize that the watches are not all that important. The only thing that has been making me smile is my kids.

I like this and agree. Usually I'd be working, coming home later and hardly spending time with the kids.

The two older boys still play with neighbours a lot but I've found that the lockdown has really enabled me to bond with my one year old daughter. And my is she bringing me so much damn joy every day.

So I'm trying to take it all as a blessing.

I’m liking all the audio posts. After 12 years of building speakers, sometimes commercially, I’m pretty happy with this setup. A little vinyl, a little digital.


I’ve spent a little time in the wood shop.



The most fun has been my Ducati though.



My kids aren’t bad either... :)

When does turkey season open up where you are? Started at the beginning of April here in TN. I've only been able to go 5 times as I'm an "essential" worker, but I've managed to get two toms so far. Here's a picture from a couple of weekends ago to keep in the spirit of the thread:



I haven't found a better method of social distancing than turkey hunting

The photo of your OP looks like it has a fated bezel. Had to blow it up to make sure it didn't.

You referring to my Explorer in the post above yours? If so, absolutely. The way the Explorer's bezel reflects the tree canopy above in the woods on a sunny day is a stunning thing! Here's another example of the same:

Avalon Lake in northern lower Michigan. One of the most beautiful glacial lakes you’ll ever see. Here is a summertime view.
