Surfing and pretending I know my way around a golf course.

Getting all fat and sassy, just kidding. Wrenching on my truck, getting ready for camping/wheeling trips, cycling, running, painting, doing some design work for friends, and hanging with Lindsey and Sven (dog).
What's been the most positive aspect?
Being lucky enough to work for a company that can provide and allow some extra time off has been rad. Having extra time to give all my interests has been the best.
What have you been listening to and watching?
#schittscreek. Haven't listened to many podcast lately, but @ruffstuffspecialities has a fabrication podcast that's pretty good.
Favorite SALT. frame?
Tough one, but I'd say the James. Classic style, perfect amount of chunkiness, fits me well and goes nicely with sun or rx.
Kevin C // Warranty and Repair
How are you passing the time?
Painting, hiking, day trips into the wilderness with my lady and of course vegetating on the couch.
What have you been watching?
The lady has hooked me on to some of her #mtv reality shows but other than that we have been rewatching a lot of movies on #disneyplus.
Favorite SALT. glass?
The Chico. I have every color, I swear by that frame. #lookgoodfeelgood
Matthew T // Shipping and Receiving
How are you passing the time?
Is time passing? I didn't realize. Actually, my wife is pregnant and I feel super blessed to be able to spend so much time with her.
What have you been working on?
This #quaratinelife has allowed me a lot of time exploring creatively. I've been deep diving into all my eyewear influences and using them as inspiration for some new pieces.
What are you reading, listening to or watching?
I've tried to read some novels that I've been meaning to make time for. "Lost Horizon" by James Hilton, Raymond Chandler's detective novel "The Big Sleep".
Favorite SALT. piece?
Right now it's the Rockwood. I've been wearing it on the motorcycle. I've also been loving the Henderson as an optical. It feels like it could fit right in one of those 1930s detective novels.
Trevor K // Product Line Manager
How are you passing the time?
Home-officing, working on my cocktails and learning new skills.
What positive aspects of quarantine have surprised you?
Video calls. I probably did more video calls during #quaratine then in my entire life. Great to keep in touch with the family and friends this way.
What are you watching?
We went back in time and watched all the Harry Potter movies. Classic!
Favorite SALT. piece?
Dibergi sun in matte black and black sand.
Brice G // Area Manager // Europe
What have you been doing while at home?
Been getting rid of all the stuff/clothes I no longer use or wear and trying to live a more minimal life.
What's been the upside?
Realizing how much I don't mind having to social distance. I can finally focus on things I have been putting off for years.
What are you watching?
A lot of #theoffice on #netflix.
Favorite SALT. piece?
Spencer in Sun in wood grain.
Ryatt K // Shipping and Receiving
How are you passing the time during quarantine?
Taking long beach walks in the early morning, reading books I finally have time to read (currently, The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood), catching up on Netflix series I've been wanting to watch, listening to new music.
What positive aspects of quarantine are you most surprised by?
I used to waste a lot of paper towels! Now I use them sparingly. In general, living a simpler life is really good.
