    Jeeps (off roading), fishing, boating, hunting (not very good at it), history, aviation, Indycar racing, video games, good cigars, gadgets, cars, travel, music (not a musician), and probably more. My wife probably gets sick of my ADHD when it comes to interests.

    1. Fly fishing, fly tying.
    2. Ham radio
    3. Furniture making
    4. Beer brewing.

    So many hobbies I can't get to them all. I just sit in my homemade Morris chair and drink a craft beer I made. Or tie up a mess of flies while drinking two or three fingers of White Label Scotch.

    Between corn and soybean fields.
    Camping.

    I also do IT related stuff for a living... so outside of my work hours I manage a couple sites that are relevant to the industry I work in that are quite popular. When not bogged down with work, or managing these sites I do a bit of shoddy programming/coding for my own projects. Though because I hate staring at monitors all day, I like to get outside. This year I'm going to have a nice little garden in the backyard, plan on growing some peppers, tomatoes and a little bit of corn mostly. Probably an 8X12FT garden. Blueberries would be nice, too.

    Probably too much at any given time, but this stuff for now: currently renovating a foreclosure as my first home, fishing (which I really suck at), hunting (duck hunting mostly but also bow hunting for deer), reading (fiction, bio's, military history, true crime), and I'm starting competitive shooting (USPSA & INMG) this year. Also would like to get into hiking/backpacking, snowmobiles, and probably reloading to facilitate my shooting. All on top of working 60ish hours a week.

    Well, here's one i haven't see posted yet:

    I collect vintage radio programs in MP3. I have every Dragnet ever made and thousands of hours of other shows including, but not limited to: The Jack Benny Program, Abbott and Costello, Fibber McGee and Molly, The Great Gildersleeve, The Shadow, Suspense, and many, many more. I am building an MP3 dock using a 1938 Philco radio case to listen to them on. Previously, I have electronically and cosmetically restored a Philco model 60 (1936).

    I also love all things mechanical I like taking something like the top pic and ending up with the bottom

    Sometimes I like to build things nearly from scratch:

    I am into weightlifting, guitar playing/collecting, and woodworking... in process of building acoustic guitar from scratch. Guitars are my number one passion, the only thing I ever trade guns for is better guitars. Other then that I collect and get my spouse angry at me for the accumulating mass of guitars and guns.

    Out and about
    Other than guns, I do a bit of gaming (primarily Civ V) and I do IT stuff on the side. I've got two custom built PC's, including one that acts as a media server for my AppleTV and a backup server for the rest of the house. I've also run my own network cable throughout the house. We do try and go camping fairly often, and we're planning on hitting the Cape Lookout National Seashore for a trip this year. I also have my newest hobby arriving this weekend:



    I pick these two up from my brother in Cleveland this weekend. Predominantly Azores Cattle Dog with some American Bulldog mix. Smart as a whip and guaranteed to get big. Hopefully with some time and effort, they'll become trusted partners for trips into the woods, and maybe even on some hunting trips. The male my brother has (not the father of these two) is already good at treeing racoons.
