Cool What are your other hobbies / interest?

We have done occupations, what do you call your car, and a few others. Lets try this one.

Other hobbies:

I do mechanic work at home, mostly 4 wheelers, lots of porting banshee cylinders. Repairing T-5s is becomming common. I will say it is a hobbie because I enjoy it, and it funds my other hobbies. Which are hunting, riding 4 wheelers, camping, astronomy. And soon to be fishing again. I also enjoy flirting with, and looking at looking at the girls, but that gets me in trouble momma.

I race (oval track). We run Mansfield and Lorain in Ohio. That takes up about all my "free"
time. Won't be running much this year, will be taking care of my newborn son.

I like doing improvements around the house. I've completely gutted one room and am in the process of adding insulation (it's a really old house), upgrading the wiring and flooring so I can have a home office and chill out room with my TV, stereo, and computer.

I also enjoy travel, hiking, and camping. California was great for this. Last year I went up to the top of Half Dome in Yosemite National Park. I've also been up Mount Elbert, the highest peak in Colorado.

My biggest one is riding. I enjoy challenging roads like Deals Gap. I also enjoy working on my cars and bikes, reading and on-line gaming (Diablo 2).

Lately, most of my time has been devoted to working because I am doing a lot with Mustang Works, Web Site development projects, servers, etc... So, I haven't done much else in the past month. However, the things I like to do most are:
  • Hang out and do things with friends and family
  • Eat out
  • See movies (theater or DVD at home)
  • Enjoy my vehicles by driving and racing them (not wrenching on them these days though! )
  • Swim in my pool, BBQ on my grill, and do outside stuff in the summer
  • 3D PC Gaming
  • Bike ride
  • Roller skate
  • Bowling
  • Travel
  • Sky Dive (yes, I jump from planes at 13,000 ft!)
  • Misc other things...

Are they broke?

My view on that: If at least one to the engines are still going then my happy lil butt is staying where I am! Heights don't bother me but I have a trust issue and I don't trust anyone enough to pack a chute for me.

My hobbies are almost identical to 88workcars. I mostly fish and dive but also like to hunt and ride 4-wheelers even though Ive never owned one. I also like working on and rebuilding boats, and am in the process of re-doing a smashed up 21 foot paramount.

Dont knock it until you try it. Sky diving is the absolute most intense adrenaline rush you will ever experience in your life, second to none.

Everybody should do it at least once before you die!

Talking

If I am not at school or work or working with ACC's honor group I like doing the following:

1. playing with my golden retriever
2. working on my art (sculpture, photo, and 2-d)
3. movies
4. shopping (HEY! I AM a Girl! )

That's about it.
