Took a 6-hour hike up the San Juan mountains in Colorado last weekend. Started at a little over 9000 ft elevation and made it up to 10500 ft. #grownostr #getoutside #nature #proofofwalk

Here's the view from my office today. On a mountain at 9000 ft plus on a Genie lift at 40 ft hanging hand hewn timber window trim. #grownostr #proofofwork #getoutside

Good morning, Nostr. What's in your pockets? Here's some of what I'm carrying this week. Case Sodbuster Jr Lighter Flashlight Hank #edc #knifestr #pocketdump #grownostr

I've been playing around with Chat GPT's new image generation. It has finally mastered flawless text within an image. And I have cranked my pipe tobacco labels up to 11. #pipestr #grownostr #ai

Finished up my Saturday afternoon by moving the cattle to fresh grass. #farmstr #grownostr #getoutside #beef

Here's an old barn right on the edge of the highway. Probably been there since it was just a dirt road. Bates County Missouri #ruralruins #grownostr

Tonight's activities. I'm just getting around to starting this one. I know from her notes, @Lyn Alden has good taste in books and music, so I suspect it will be worth the read. I'm pairing it with some Cult Blood Red Moon. #grownostr #bookstr #pipestr

I'm out of town for a two-day wastewater class. Most people would spend their evening watching TV in a hotel room. Not me. I find a conservation area and play in the woods. #grownostr #getoutside

Here's an old barn still hanging on until time and nature reclaim it. Polk County, Missouri. #ruralruins #grownostr #getoutside

It seems spring has arrived. Several calves on the ground already. #grownostr #farmstr #getoutside

It is my firm belief that every man needs a big rock in the woods upon which to sit and contemplate while watching the sun set or the creek flow, perhaps with a pipe and some good tobacco, and that a large part of what is wrong with the world is because so many men forgot this fact, or never learned it in the first place. This is my big rock, complete with some moss padding and a grape vine to lean my haversack against, and I found a golf ball while walking to it. #grownostr #getoutside #pipestr #knifestr

Rainy Saturday afternoon activities: A little old-school scifi-fantasy paired with the scent of black Cavendish #grownostr #pipestr #bookstr #knifestr

Good morning Here's my snow-day leather project: a new sheath for my ESEE Izula #gm #proofofwork #knifestr #edc #leather #makeyourownshit

Had a busy week, and a productive Saturday. Now it's time for some relaxation and a pipe. Blend is Bombadil from Just for Him smoked in a Cristiano straight billiard. Tonight, I'm pairing my tobacco with some atmospheric black metal. Giving Grima's Nightside album a listen and quite enjoying it. #pipestr #metal #grownostr

Today is JRR Tolkien's birthday. Don't forget to smoke a bowl of Capstan Blue and reread some of your favorite passages of Middle Earth lore in honor of the Professor. #tolkien #pipestr #grownostr
