Most of you already know about my other hobby...





I do leatherwork, primarily boots and shoes. Made these recently for a client...



Also play music...





I have a ton of skills and can do a lot of things but there's very few I consider a hobby. SCA, MTB, and music are the big three. I like computers but right now it's a job, not a hobby.

That was one of the best weekends that I've had in a while. We skied Squaw Fri-Sat-Sun with cold, dry freshies every day.

Most of my other money is spent on guitars, but thankfully I am pretty happy with the stuff I have so it hasn't been hitting my wallet lately. I guess camping and hiking and fishing are pretty much what take up my time outside of school and biking.

i like making babies...or at least practice runs since we're already at our limit of kids :D

i really don't have time for any other hobbies....i pretty much take on whatever hobby my kids are into at the time.

Come on over! I have Guinness ready to go with proper pint glasses aquired from pubs in Ireland, and some very kind MJ.

If you ever find yourself in SoCal you're welcome at my house.

Wild caving is amazing :thumb: I checked out a wild cave in Schoharie and several offshoots of Secret Caverns when I was living up there. Have you spelunked the ones up that way?

yeah, I used to frequent Clark
and I hit up the wagon wheel and a bunch of others that I don't quite remember....


I did get to mess around in Howe Caverns (we got permission), that was fun. Tour groups would be walking through and they would see us crawling around in the dark with lights on our heads.


Biggins: Climbing is still lots of fun. I have taken a class in wall contact and sequencing, learned a lot there. Will be taking an outdoor rigging class this weekend (we are putting together our outdoor ropes kit).
