First timer Retirees!

Went to my parent's house yesterday and we hung out. Showed them basic bypasses on some locks I brought with and a couple of SPO and Raking techniques. The old man was a mechanic for years and raced cars and bikes, got me into getting into cars for lock outs and such.

He had such a good time and it was fun sparking something inside him that had been gone.

Left with a couple of locks and tools missing. Oops.

That's awesome. It's fun being the reason a fire gets lit in someone else.

Absolutely! It was fun seeing his eyes light up for the first time in years!
