Women, wakeboarding, fitness, my children.........not necessarily in that order.
Family, kids, coins, sports (playing not watching), jet skiing, wakeboarding, Big Air....no one ever got hurt in the air....its the sudden stop that hurts. I hate Hurricane Sandy. I hate FEMA and i hate the blasted insurance companies.
<< <i>Don't know what the situation is where you guys bike, but there has been something of a range war in Marin County among bikers, horsemen, and hikers over trail access. Bikers can use the fire roads. There are miles and miles of fire roads, including the Repack where the mountain bike was born. There are just too many users to permit bikers to use the single track trails. The contravetsy seems to have quieted down lately as the various groups seem to have found a way to co-exist peacefully. >>
We have problems here to, right now i'm going to weekly meetings trying to get some bike specific singletrack, I agree that horses, hikers, and bikers are to much for 1 trail thats why we need our own trail. Everyone is for it except for the hunters they don't want any new trails because it would mess up the way the animals live
Haven't been on the Appalachian Trail but grew up in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Black Mtn, NC. I spent most of my free time walking thru those hills. If I could I'd move back there and go for day long walks again.
I spent about six years (part time) in night school earning an associate degree while working full time while my wife and I raised our kids. That took a lot away from the hobbies. When that was completed, I went on and completed my BS in about 18 months while I continued to work full time. (I'm happy I did it, but I'm happier that I'm done!)
Photography is fun, I don't get to do as much as I used to, but now and then I take the camera an go get lost in the woods, or on the shores of Lake Michigan, and shoot a whole bunch of photos.
I get into tropical fish. Every now and then I will raise a batch of Angelfish (freshwater). We have 40 gallon and 65 gallon tanks in the living room (more in the basement).
Old Cars, we have a 1969 Chevelle Convertible and a 1978 Nova. Both cars are V-8, four-speed cars. We go to about four car shows each year.
Wood working is fun too. I have made some of the furniture in our house.
And more!
