She must take the same magic class as my grand kids and I got SIX of them!

Finally had a couple weekends of nice weather and got the lighting 100% finished. Here's a short video clip of it in action:

RGB LED Lighting installed on a hybrid camper - YouTube

There are 3 lighting circuits installed (awning tube, awning poles & bed fold-outs). Each circuit can be be individually turned on or off, depending on the lighting needs. I have a set of blue LED strips on my way that will be used for the step lighting. My next addition to the lighting will be for the front side (door side) on the underside. That will probably wait until next spring, though.

I'm into

hiking/mountain climbing/camping
bicycling
going to the drag races
photography
airshows
hydroplane boat races
tornado chasing
skydiving
roller coasters
any type of cool thrill ride/adrenaline junkie experience
customizing my car and detailing it

I avoid buying movies and electronics at the truck stops, just a racket and a ripoff designed to steal your money. I just download movies in my free time, or when the truck is in the shop. I also download music to listen to while I'm driving, and am constantly reloading my phone's sim card (i run the lineout jack to the cd player in the truck). I have about 40 movies I just downloaded, so that should keep me busy for a while.

I also spend a lot of time cleaning my truck religiously. Outside windshield usually gets done 2 - 3 times a day in the springs/summer, maybe once or twice in the winter. Inside windows get cleaned once a week. I detail the dash and vinyl and spray the smelly good. Everything is OCD organized for convenience and easy access. I even bought my own wipers and installed Bosch Icon wipers because the cheap one's Werner uses are so horrible you might as well run around with no wipers at all on your truck. I clean the mirrors outside as well. I bought an airhose and sprayer kit and tapped into my passenger seat air connection so I can blow all the dirty, gravel and crumbs out of my truck.

Hi, guys. Sorry for bumping this thread. But I have recently discovered that I'm in a kind of depression and want to find a hobbie that I never tried before. Could you please recommend me something? Just please no handmade/diy and similar hobbies for kids/women. ;)

Have you ever been at shooting range? This is my hobby. Also if you don't like guns maybe snowmobiles will interest you.

It is quite difficult to find a good gift for a child in today's world: there is too much different garbage around. But thanks to things like online shopping sofa bed at https://paramusmegafurniture.com/collections/sofa-beds , there is an excellent opportunity to buy a practical and environmentally friendly gift for every taste. I am incredibly impressed!

One hobby I think anyone can enjoy at any age is learning music and playing some instrument that you can enjoy, maybe several.
Never too old or too young to start this journey. Life needs more cow bell! :cool:

My hobby is to do a renovation. Yes, it's weird. I do this so often that my wife is already mad at me. When my friends start repairing the house and want to hire builders, I offer them my help for FREE. Some disagree, but they have no idea how much I like it. Recently, a friend of mine bought radiators direct online and asked me to help install them. He still continues to thank me at every meeting.

Thanks to car simulators, you can develop your driving skills well. Although there are still their opponents. So what are the more pros or cons of simulators - consider below. If we consider beginners who are just starting to learn how to drive, simulators are not such a useless thing. But what about casino games? What is better for you, a trucking simulator or casino games https://casinosanalyzer.com/online-casinos/sxvegas.com ? Any ideas?
