In addition to being a amateur radio operator (ham), I enjoy hiking, also am a artist, at least that’s what people tell me (oil, watercolor,)I also enjoy going to the gym, getting back into that after a rotator cuff surgery.

I really enjoy painting - acrylics and oil, just never enough time or space. Photography, sewing, cooking, gardening, and making my family smile by being as goofy as the law will allow. :}

Right now I'm running them with vintage Dynaco equipment. I was using a Denon home theater rig but it was to "tinny". Den is about 24x24, with a wall of Altecs.

"Altecs". I do like a good tune melted into my brain. My truck has an 800 watt sound system (factory) that will make your ears bleed. I use it, only when "absolutely necessary".8)

I'm more interested in the "Big Twins". Beautiful.

I guess the #1 time-killer for me is golf - I'm playing to a 10 right now but that's because I spent so much time working on the boat last season that I didn't get to practice much.
Love playing guitar & bass - mostly just jamming along with '80's & '90's rock tunes & making noise - no time for a band.
Also do home improvements - carpentry, drywall, electrical, plumbing, you name it (mostly out of cheapness - not going to pay somebody to do something I can figure out how to). :p

Keeping my stuff running, at the shop and at home....

Pedaled my arse about 1200 miles on the bike in the last year... All short distance rides under 20 miles.. my regular ride is a shade over 10 miles, which i'm fixin to go do here in a few minutes... I do want to attempt a long distance ride up the coast sometime...

Playing guitar, very badly... I try, but it's maily just my way of letting off steam...

I'd say home improvement stuff, but it's too much like work to considered a hobby...:|

Re: What are your hobbies, other than boating and fishing?

For being a 13 year old in this day and age, one would find me strange. (That's okay, I strive to be different) I don't really like social events and would rather stay in "my own little world."
I love fishing and boating, especially restoration, which is how I stumbled upon this forum. I like shooting and archery. I like working in the shop, be it wood, metal or mechanics. I can't wait till dad teaches me to weld. I would like to start restoring older outboards but budget doesn't allow that. I like just about any outside work. I especially love splitting firewood. I like to read, which is why I spend so much time on these boating forums.
Unfortunately, my dad has a real tight schedule, and we are not the richest people in the world, so we cannot do much of anything all that often, so I am stuck just reading about my hobbies as opposed to doing them.

Mess with computers. "Horse trade" my computer skills for other goods and services. Help my neighbors with computer stuff, especially the old folks. Tinker with stuff. Pick a little banjo, Make (and drink) beer. Disc golf. Work in the yard, grow tomatoes.

mater sammich / sweet tea, typical Ga. stuff :p
