It used to be cooking, but after a year on recruiting duty and a year on a busy construction job, I didn't have the time and got out of it. Now it's making knives.
So many things....cats, bragging about my son and his artwork, gardening - vegetables and flowers....lots of flowers, fishing, crocheting, baking (breads mostly), cooking, attending car shows with the hubby and his truck, being his passenger on the motorcycles, etc. Retirement is hard work!
Our horses and all that has came about with what we do with them. The grandkids take up most of the time. Used to work with stained glass and would love to get back into it... someday
I try to go fishing once a week when the weather is nice. I got a kayak a couple years ago for Christmas and I'd like to get into that more. I also like to collect sports cards/memorabilia.
thanks and we run a horse rescue... but have meet some really great people. Started doing camps thru ball state with special needs kids and we are growing. So the hobby has turned into passion and service
I take it that you have horses too?
Did have 10 years ago, loved it. Got too expensive and time consuming (actually ex wife got the big half). I admire your commitment with the kids. Its a good thing you're doing.tmschuller
I have too many hobbies and not enough time. Guns, reloading, fly fishing, fly tying, ham radio, wood working, etc. This wall of cabinets is my design. This is is my friends man cave.
Cooking, trying to be the best parent I can be, anything horse related (I rode/drove/trained them for years but not so much now), my cats/dogs, cars, trying to get into beer making but I suck at it. The problem is that I work anywhere from 12-16 hours each shift so when I have a day off I like to spend it with my kids or asleep. I have too many hobbies and not enough time.
Kayaking, hiking, running, photography, building furniture and collecting and maintaining as many varieties of hostas as I can find. Yah, I know the last one might seem kind of weird, but we live in the woods and shade loving plants are about all we can raise.
Living History, Fly Fishing (not as much as I used too), Reading, woods bumming, creek wading, Indian and early settlers relic hunting, fossil hunting, chasing after my wife, sipping bourbon, Christian Apologetics, and pontificating...Lot's of pontificating.....
We are in the midst of buying some land with a couple of Indian Rock Houses on it and I hope to find proof of pre Clovis at some point...I just can't buy into the story that folks were not here before 13,000 years ago and I am hoping this rock house will yield such evidence....
And sitting in this tub on a hot summer day sipping a Dr. Pepper and reading a Backwoodsman pondering Life, God, and Turkey Ticks.....
