The odds are that we would try and do a lot more if we had the time. I need to have two or three of me running around just to do half of what I want to do.

I find it a lot of fun and very relaxing since when you are shooting you have to block everything else from your mind. Plus you can imagine what ever is aggravating you on the target and after you put a few hundred rounds through a target with your bosses face on it you feel much better. LOL

Hmmm, well, theres:
Riding Harley
Crocheting
Quilting
Stained Glass
Painting
Rug Making
Classical Piano
Weaving
Sign Language
Traveling
Polymer Clay
Think I'll stop. I'm pooped.
Oh, and nagging DH! I just LOVE nagging DH. Really, there's just no hobby as fulfilling as nagging DH. Sorry, I almost forgot that one!
:mrgreen:
Yes, I use to LOVE skeet shooting. Don't do it anymore because of MS.

Plus, with watercolor you have to be careful not to mess up because you can't just paint over it. No erasing, no covering, it's hard but I love it.
-I play the guitar. I have 7 guitars, although one is in need of a new bridge, and an other (electric) is in pieces after I took it apart to give it a lovely new paint job ( I used metallic blue, left over from a car I painted at work)
Let me see if I can pull up a few pics for you guys...

Such a talented group we have here.
I kind of go through phases on some--back and forth--art stuff, sketch and paint on driftwood, pastel drawings, crochet, polymer clay stuff (right now is beads).
I love photography, camping, fishing, gardening, reading and playing computer games and I volunteer -right now it's mostly teaching juveniles to quilt.
