      Lets see...

      1. If you want to call it a hobby.. frame/roof/whatever someone needs help with. Let me know tonight and tomorrow I will be hanging off a ladder/etc with the toolbelt on. I helped frame a small addition to a house on Xmas eve last year.

      2. Hunt, but thats becoming boring up here in the land of the deer gestapo. Its getting to the point I'd sooner just watch the critters.

      3. Landscaping.

      I've come to realize that most of the things I like to do everyone else refers to as work...

        1. In the past I have done: photography, building model cars, organized sports (soccer and volleyball for many years) and tried some others (including cross stiching). These days I spend a lot of time with my parents and don't even have time for ww

        2. LOVE to learn to fly!!! and I am sure one day I WILL DO IT!

            Bill, what are you using? I've played with MythTV for about 2yrs now. I'm using MythDora at present. I like it, but am having little issues with it...

                  Truth be told, woodworking is my newest interest. Real newbie.

                  Old time passions are golf and restoring vintage vehicles, especially early CJ5 Jeeps and old pickups. Also have an extensive music collection, over 3000 vinyl albums and about 1200 CDs, mostly 60s/70s rock and blues from all eras from 20's to present.

                    Glad to have you here in the most beautiful country on earth. You have to come through here to get to Alaska anyways.

                    1. WW is new to me. Have always enjoyed camping, stream fishing (not as much last few years) and kite flying. Last 3 years fell in love with salmon fishing at lodges in the Queen Charlottes (expensive and can't afford it unless company pays).

                    2. Would love to try hand gliding and kite buggy/sledding. Maybe I can build a buggy partially of wood someday.

                      Combat Pistol Competition, the stuff where you run and shoot. I read one heck of a lot, naps, big fan of naps.

                      Used to skydive, got 22 hours in single engine aircraft, then realized I have no sense of direction and I get airsick. Not a good combination for a pilot.

                      Would love to get a Hardtail Springer front fork Harley again, but the wife wont let me. maybe it's because I told her of how I used to stand up on the seat at 100 MPH.

                        Before children I had many different hobbies.

                        Not enough time it seems these days but my short list includes: fishing, fly fishing, shooting, hunting, reloading, bullet casting, camping. More recently I've added Scouting back into my short list; was active from sixth grade into my third year of college. Kept out of adult leadership for the first two years of my oldest son's Cub Scout journey until the pressure to be recruited became unbearable. This year I'm our Pack's Cubmaster!

                          1. Working on my 65 Chevy truck. Mostly collecting the various parts up to know. Soon to start the serious teardown, and buld a matching trailer in the process.

                          2. Did a bunch of stuff when I was young, stupid, and healed fast. (Jumping out of perfectly good airplanes, some whitewater kayaking) Most recent, and the one I miss most, was riding a 1000cc Kawasaki drag bike. Had to quit for unresolved medical problems. Would like to build a bracket car to play with, maybe based on a Bradley GTII body.

                            I enjoy collecting knives and lately practicing on the xbox so I can beat my 5 year old grandson. I rode motorcycles when I was young and would like to buy a Harley but I can't talk my wife into it as she is worried I might act crazy on it.

                              My other hobbies.... Guns (shooting and re-loading), guitars (still can't play worth a darn). Lately rebuilding old power tools.

                              Used to mess with 60's and 70's muscle cars (mostly Oldsmobiles) but since the kids, don't seem to have the time for that. Again, not as much time for but I enjoy photography (b/w) and film developing, and older macs.

                                Off and on: photography, amateur astronomy, reading science fiction, mucking about with computers at home (when I'm not at work mucking about with computers).
