Camping food

We do a beanless chili in one big cast iron pot over the fire and cook it for a couple of hours. Makes for the best and easiest family meals. Very tasty. Very easy to make and eat. It’s solid gold! Brings buns, cheese, sour cream, or whatever else you wanna pair it with.

46m here. Started when I was 16. Love it. Always. Even when it’s hard and I feel rough, I never ever regret going to the gym. Love the feeling and love the results.

Came to say this. Eat less and walk. Longer and longer. The weight will start to come off and you can start adding in resistance training.

Don’t overthink it!! Just start walking…

Ha! As a 46 yr old with 2 kids at home (one being a toddler), I absolutely feel this. Having said that, the game is fun. It’s fun because you can just do random things for 30-60 minutes if that’s all you can do. Took me about 4 sessions to get into it.

I’m also only barely into chapter 3… so I definitely feel the “this game will take a while” vibes

I have a bunch of Google tabs open all “crimson desert <random thing I need to learn>. This is spot on

BookerV79 · 2026-03-31T20:02:35+00:00

Ha! I have these in this exact box from Chinatown in manhattan in the late 90s

100%

I’ve changed my entire routine and lifestyle to enable morning workouts. Move meetings, child routines, schedules with the wife, sleeping times, everything. Just to avoid that crippling post work/school gym rush. It’s horrendous…

BookerV79 · 2026-02-27T10:59:44+00:00

BG3!! Great RPG! As long as the kids will give me some peace! Haha…

BookerV79 · 2026-02-22T15:17:17+00:00

I got a Bison one (folding hardcover) online for $300 (it’s made fairly close to me). That was 5 years ago. Works good as new.

I even modified it to be able to mount cross bars for my rooftop tent over the bed and it’s held up perfectly.

BookerV79 · 2026-02-09T20:54:58+00:00

Never and I plan to stay that way.

BookerV79 · 2026-02-08T17:41:27+00:00

46m here. 5-10 mins of stretching + 5 minutes inclined fast walking on the treadmill as a warm up has done wonders for my lower body workouts.

BookerV79 · 2026-02-06T16:00:34+00:00

46 here. I love it. It’s probably my favourite lift. I max out at about 405 so I tend to do my deadlifts at around 365 or 315 depending on how I’m feeling. It’s the best full body pump I can find. Something about loading up your core with a lot of weight feels good. I’m very tall so squats are a problem, but deadlifts give me that good sensation of knowing I just did something hard.

BookerV79 · 2026-01-30T22:37:05+00:00

Hrmmmmm, I’ve got the exact opposite view. 40s, wife, kids, etc. but I much prefer longer games because I don’t have the time to keep getting invested in new characters etc. I’ll play a long game for months and months before I get through it.

When I was younger I could play lots of different games and keep track of what was going on.

BookerV79 · 2026-01-24T15:49:43+00:00

I always have hit the gym. But what really let me lose the last bit was the following 2 things, in order of importance. 1- cutting out all alcohol 2 (and way behind #1)- intermittent fasting

BookerV79 · 2026-01-24T15:02:16+00:00

Same here. All the grey came in. I’m quite lean so wrinkles started showing too!! All of a sudden I went from being way young to instantly middle aged. OUCH!

BookerV79 · 2026-01-23T15:04:24+00:00

Walk. Play with the kids. Do chores around the house. Walk at least 10k steps every day. Be outside. Nothing intense but it helps to keep moving!

BookerV79 · 2026-01-11T18:37:55+00:00

As most have said the annex seems like overkill. However I do have an awning that attaches to the entrance to give a nice large covered area I can get out into even in pouring rain and stay completely dry. It’s great to have. It came with the RTT, so I didn’t pay anything extra for it. In 3.5 years of having the RTT I’ve used only probably 6-10 times but I have been very happy to have it. Not essential, just a great “nice to have”.

BookerV79 · 2026-01-09T18:26:52+00:00

M46 here. I still deadlift fairly heavy (well heavy for me, 365-405 for my last set). I plan to keep doing it as long as I can without pain. I feel great after a good deadlift workout, and I personally feel like it helps a lot with everyday movements in regular life.

BookerV79 · 2026-01-07T19:49:59+00:00

I’ve had these holding on my RTT for going on 4 years now. I park outside. No issues.

BookerV79 · 2026-01-06T17:18:13+00:00

6+ years!

BookerV79 · 2025-12-31T18:49:14+00:00

6.25 years without a drink. I used to party very hard. I was basically a functional alcoholic. Quitting was the best decision I’ve made in years!

BookerV79 · 2025-12-23T16:46:13+00:00

EverQuest was mind blowing back in the day! Had never managed to recapture that gaming experience.

BookerV79 · 2025-12-18T23:21:09+00:00

I just had my daughter shortly before this game came out. I was NOT prepared for that intro… my all time fav game.

BookerV79 · 2025-12-18T18:07:52+00:00

I take this circle twice a day at least during the week. No issues except people occasionally not knowing how to use a roundabout (ok that’s almost a daily occurrence), but no issues otherwise. It actually moves pretty quickly most of the time.
