You and your horse are a beautiful sight to see. I've enjoyed reading about everyone's hobbies. I love to do stained glass, garden, (became a Master Gardener after I retired), knitting and crocheting beginner, cross-stitch, read, read, read! It's lovely to wake up in the morning and think, "Hmmmmm! What shall I do today?"

Watson is beautiful! I used to show hunters and jumpers back in the day. We learned some dressage to compliment it. Its very demanding, but so graceful!

Now my "other hobby" or I should say hobbies, are cars and car shows (I have a 66 Mustang and a 2011 Corvette Z06 that I show and my husband has a 34 Ford Street Rod and a 2015 Chevrolet SS that he shows) and my 3 dachshunds who amazingly can take up a lot of time for 3 smallish dogs. lol

cashs_mom....hunters and jumpers?! No way! We keep all four hooves on the ground! No jumping for us!

Thanks for all the compliments on my beautiful boy...although he was a little stinker last night. He must know there's a show coming up.

I really like to read about everyone's other hobbies. It's interesting to know what else is going on in people's lives!

He's beautiful. I love horses. My other hobby is reading (thank goodness for the local library), but I might get into woodworking. I had woodshop for 2 years in middle school. We made guitars and some other things. Just what I need, another expensive hobby .

I LOVE your "other hobby." I'd love to do that if I were able.

When I was growing up, I had a couple of horses. I sold my two-year old when I married at 19...

I got into several different crafts. I taught myself to crochet after a class was cancelled. Then I taught myself to do cake decorating. I made wedding cakes for 20 years for fun. Now decorating a cake feels like work.

At 52 I did my first skydive. I only meant to do one, but that turned into 719 jumps in the next seven years. I'd still be doing that every weekend if I was able.

Before I had to give up skydiving I began my first quilt. It took me 12 months to finish it. Now I'm no longer working and am glad to have a hobby that I can still do.

I sing lead and backup vocals and play keyboard with a classic country music band 1-2 times a week, love to read, crochet and, of course, quilt. Probably the most prolific "hobby" I have is collecting fabric. ;0)
