Take global warming serious, kids ![]()
Well, as someone who lives in beautiful cologne I highly disagree 

I’m just kidding, it’s really beautiful! 
It’s pretty but I’m with Mini here / I gotta say my own city is the prettiest.
. How blessed we all are to love our home towns.
Got myself a septum piercing today, it was a very long-cherished wish of mine
at the moment it has to be this horseshoe kinda thing, but in about six weeks I will change it with a golden ring 
We went and spent a week on Roatán not long ago. It’s a magical little island. My wife had never gone diving. She was afraid of doing the backwards roll entry so I had the boat man give her a helping hand
Diving is cool! I remember challenging my friends for “whoever’s butt touches the bottom surface in the deep part” when going to the pool
It was a diving experience on its own.
Waterrrrrr watrerrrrrrr
When I used to take swimming classes as a kid we always cared more about who could go furthest underwater than who was fastest. I can only do 25 meters these days but I used to be able to go 50.
I still love it! I just can’t bring myself to try and go further than 1 length of the pool now, it would involve an underwater turnaround; I’m too old for that stuff ![]()
25 meters! All I did was 3.5, and even that put a significant pressure back in the day.
If that’s what a former marine says, I’m afraid of my 40s xD
Way back when I was a kid in Boy Scouts we went to summer camp every year and one of the highlights was swimming a full mile. One of the counselors followed us around in a boat in case an emergency happened, but we did the full mile every year. One year I did it with a broken arm (sidestroke the whole way with that one arm in a cast poking up like a shark fin). Always loved swimming.
I have no idea how far I can go underwater but I can at least go the length of my pool, which is around 38 feet. I go snorkeling at a nearby lake during the summer here and it’s still a lot of fun.
We don’t use that term brother (-;
Once a Marine always a Marine
But It’s been some years since I was in “fighting shape” ![]()
Your 40s are nothing to be afraid of… just everything that happens within them…
I’m actually not at 40s yet but almost there. 30s are pretty fantastic though. I got a few of them left before I hit the next big birthday.
I am firmly embedded in the latter half of my 40s. I wasn’t even grown up until I hit 30 or so, looking back.
It’s nice seeing people of the forum on here. I’m a bit too heavy too take photos of myself. I do want to share this concept art of an idea for a climate change centre near where I live, to be built on the currently empty site of the old coal power station which got demolished a few years ago. Inspired by The Eden Project in Cornwall. I do love a project with ambition behind it. I need to get some photos of the coastline I live on, I can’t imagine not living next to the ocean. Also here’s a gif of the power station’s demolition.
With the exception of the boots and hats, I made everything we’re wearing in this picture. I don’t know why my son wasn’t wearing shoes.
sir, you look like an absolute boss.
