Day 56

Did some harvesting of mint and lavender flowers from the garden using blade/scissors and some mail duty on this overcast humid day.

That's a great use of the scissors.  We have a mint patch right outside our door that I've done the same thing with.  Can't beat a cup of mint ☕

I there with you on the harvesting mint but I'm afraid Barry  :facepalm: I've never found mint tea works for me. At the risk of being controversial : Roast Lamb. End of.

Day 57

A little addition to my spinach salad from the garden. I am eating mint, lamb’s quarter, and kale mixed into the baby spinach.

60 days is impressive.  Good work, Enginears, Barry, and Harley (I think that’s all remaining?).

A Spirit challenge would be great!

To be honest after 30 days I was still enamored with the champ, but approaching 60 I find myself ready to put it away for a while. Not only do I have a few new ones I want to carry, I find the champ optimized for my home life. Rather than run out to the shed for my full blown tools I can have the champ handy for all the dad tasks and quick household tasks. For summer carry, especially given the humidity, I find the champ pretty cumbersome. No worries though, its one free day before the 84/85 challenge. I can carry a waiter!

Day 48

I went on a 36 hour marathon travel and did 3 family parties out of town. The champ did not have much to do, so here it is as I enjoy the rain and a beer back on my porch

It's been a great time with you guys!  I could carry just the Swisschamp and be completely covered...but it's going to be nice to switch out.  Summer is a good time for a smaller, lighter multi tool. 
I'm looking at October for a long term Spirit Challenge.  I'm a big Spirit fan and love carrying it.  I think it's going to be a great time!

Day 59: At work all weekend so we're just riding around together.  Opened up a couple of snacks with the main blade.
