Heh heh heh...well I had to set sex further down the list since my wife did  , but I make up for that with a lot of quality time with the kids and building a home recording studio...I also go fishing a small fraction as often as I'd like to. ...Having 4&1/2 acres of lawn to mow has forced me into another "hobby" as well... |

Besides RC planes, horses, shooting, camping/fishing and the computer stuff like internet time  , I haven't been doing too much of any of those except the internet thing the last year or 2.  There are more that are occassional, like metal fabication, knife making, and the occasional sneak tackle and resultant forced yard work or remodeling by my wife. ;D |

RC flying has been a big part of my life since I moved to Las Vegas 5 years ago. I also love shooting, snow skiing, fly fishing, camping and traveling. Snow skiing and fly fishing are a bit hard, when you live in the desert, so it accompanys, about a 150 to 275 mile road trip. Now a buddy of mine is getting into RC helicopters, and he makes it seem so easy, that I might give it a whirl! |

Skiing, Sailing, Photography, and Soaring, none of which I have the money to do anymore.
Duck Hunting, which comes with the excuse of economical meat for the table.
Reloading which comes with the excuse that it makes duck hunting more economical.
My wife says we are going to take up team roping, but we only have the one old horse. She thinks our 5 month old is going to be a barrel racer. I suspect that if we get into horse sports, all the other hobbies (except flying) will go away.

Surf fishing? Man that must be tough casting while standing up on the board.  I should say I like to read and watch some science and history, couldn't leave out arguing about politics too , but I forgot to mention one of my favorite things to do is search out some solitude and silence and soak it up.  |
