IRON HEART FORUM "HOMETOWN HEROES" PICTURE COMPETITION - SPRING 2022
-
There’s plenty to see and do out here but my favorite is still just being in the desert. This one was taken just outside my neighborhood. At night all you hear is coyotes. In the summer I have to be on the lookout for rattlesnakes when I go running. At night when I go to the backyard to drink a beer I have to check my chair for scorpions. It’s totally different than what I’m used to calling home but somehow it’s home all the same.
Great contest everyone. I had a blast.

Sparky says I am super late to this party, but sure, I'll play! Heading home after a(n unusually/) pleasantly uneventful 24 hours.

For the final day I contribute a circumnavigation on foot of the island I live on, with some photos of notable architecture and the sea. In the blurry background of the picture with the ship (HMS Warrior) is the sign for Gosport Ferry, or the route to IHUK. In the sky is hundreds of helium balloons that a crowd let loose (reason unknown). The old cathedral without roof is probably my favourite building in town (reminds me of Spasimo in Palermo) but a close second is Clarence Pier for its theatricality, and then lastly the sea.

Greets from the slopes of Tyrol.
We had a phenomenal day of skiing in Kitzbühel,
my great-grandparents home town.I don’t enjoy how snobby the place has become.
But soon as you’re on the slopes, it’s all fineThe UHF kept me perfectly warm and dry.
Friends always ask me „why are you hiking / skiing in that frickin shirt??“
They understood, the moment they touched the brushed side -

Local place of interest.
At the top of this drive is a general store that opened in 1867 and operated until 1901. It is said that 4 years of locusts in the area caused the decline!!!!!. It is all that remains of a town that once supplied the areas residents with much needed goods. -
My last post for this contest. Iron Heart doesn't always have to be expensive. My first pair of Iron Heart's (PIH5DCT) and my most recent purchase (5oz Ombre) both purchased used and in great condition! Scored the jeans on this forum years ago for $225 and the shirt for $220 on ebay a couple days ago.

Finishing out the week with some unexpected styling that's typical of how I usually dress when I hang out in my neighborhood of Williamsburg, Brooklyn. IH paired with some Rick Owens and Carol Christian Poell.

My son won his first tennis tournament today.

Just chilling at home after a few days off and getting everything in order for the weekend.

Last but not least, farms, barns, and tractors - there are a bunch of farms on the outskirts of town. While all the active and running farms are mostly private, there are a few that open up as markets Spring - Fall with a bunch of food and goodies. Since it’s not in season just yet, here is the IUP Farm that’s open to the public. Agriculture is a big part of Indiana’s backbone, especially the cultivation of Christmas Trees and corn. This little town is rural but had a good core to it. Oh Indiana…Wearing 76, Pronto Slub Collabs, & hiking boots.
I had a lot of fun seeing everyone’s posts here. This was great Reuben! Thanks to everyone who participated as well. Great seeing your neck of the woods!

I had too many days of poly cotton blends to participate but you guys and gals are killing it. This has been a great thread to catch up on [emoji119][emoji119][emoji119]
Edited to add that it is so good to see a lot of people’s families. No surprise that our significant others, kids, and pets are all a good looking group!
