my main hobby is music of course. singing is number 1 for me. Next is the guitar. I play vocals and guitars with my old band. oh and i love single malt whisky too. haven't tried a bunch since it's really expensive, but i have a small club going and we do rotations in buying the next bottle.  ;D
Best regards,

About 43yrs ago I bought my first SLR camera, having always had a keen interest in photography. Unfortunately, I seem to pick hobbies that I have no talent for whatsoever; but that does not stop me getting great enjoyment from them. Occasionally, more by luck than judgment, I will take a photo that I'm quite pleased with and that gives me a great deal of pleasure. I avoid photographing people, since I have learnt I am especially poor at that.

I like camping, light hiking and photography. I don't play music much anymore, but I still enjoy going out to hear local live music.

According to the stats, I've spent an hour a day posting on this forum since I actually began posting in late October 2013.  Guess that makes posting here my chief hobby.

Only if you're a brown trout holding in a small mountain up in Utah at around 8000 ft. And let me add snow skiing to the list.

Alta and Snowbird, or the other valleys up there?

Other than guitar, I enjoy running. I used to absolutely despise it, but the more and more I did it I began to love it. I try to get in anywhere from 15-20 miles a week. Any other runners on the board?

Hope that's not his fretting hand :(


Interestingly I was working in the ER one day and this 70ish YO man came in with his wife and grandchild and his hand was all wrapped up. Apparently he had been involved in woodworking in his garage and lost a bit of his index finger... Unfortunately for him this wasn't the first time... it was the 6th. All the other times he and brought in the severed finger and it was reattached, this time it had remained behind at home. I asked his wife why she let him continue and she said it was his hobby and kept him busy.... oh jeez
