    We can hang out! My wife and I like dancing too. I bought a uke, started on it but realized I didn’t have the time. It’s penciled in as one of my retirement projects coming up in 7 months.

    Dancing is basically why I have a wife.

    And I am not a great dancer. But I try to do it as well as I can because of the value it holds for us.

    Otherwise, I find myself buying lots of cooking stuff (new carbon steel pan is seasoned and I'm excited to start using it), BJJ rash guards and just got a new set of handwraps to replacer the old ones I've worn out (not because I'm any better at striking...just use and age have worn them).

    Also am trying to learn Spanish...helps me communicate better with the in laws.

    I too have been trying to learn the ukulele!
    I'm really rusty with my latin dance moves, but I love dancing! FL is great for salsa and there is a ton of merengue and bachata!

    I have an old Bear Ranger. Hardly ever use it.

    I do sometime sell some, but with the supply chain and international shipping the current mess that it is, I'm having to hold off on building for a while.

    The below is based on the Sunn 200s preamp:

    For guitar, not bass (not sure if it works with bass), but this is the last pedal I bought or needed to buy. I love this thing!!
