Other Hobbies!
-
I 'do' (run) dog agility with my two younger dogs, knit, crochet, sew, and play a handful of musical instruments.
Nothing that comes with cool action packed photos, though.
Well, I have this one of the little dog coming out of a tunnel:

Im a fisherman too. Recently took a 4 day trip to Lake Rayburn and this 7lb was the best of the trip.

I also have a healthy collection of guns and enjoy hunting and other shooting sports.
Then the main competition to my bass boat is my motorcycle. I have this Victory Vision Tour that I absolutely love. It rides like a dream and looks like a spaceship.

Other than that I am a big time gym rat and enjoy hitting the mountain bike trails when I can find the time.
Nice painting sho. You have some talent.

Ridinandreptiles gets a pass cause he's smart enough to ride a Suzuki... even if he has 2 too many wheels!
Just playing, I did a season on an LTR cause I was always pretty quick on friends quads... well most of a season anyway, now if I sleep wrong I walk funny for a day or two lol.

Lots of other things keep me busy... my "job" as a biologist, where I get to go hiking all day, see and handle all kinds of wildlife, and just get away from people and the hustle and bustle of city life (except today where I'm stuck in the office, because my supervisor assigned me to help with a report that's due in 2 days, because I'm apparently "good" at report writing). I also have a multitude of animals at home that keep me busy (see my signature). I haven't done much with my horses, but I keep trying. My goats and chickens are production pets (milk and eggs), and sometimes I let my chickens go broody and hatch some eggs, just for fun (roosters can't be kept and you can't give away roosters around here, so they end up humanely butchered to go as food for my raw fed dogs and cats). Love my snakes too, and occasionally do some education stuff with them.
I am also an artist (painting and sketching), customize model horses (my specialty is "portrait models", resculpted and painted to look like real horses), sewing, crochet, knitting, quilting, and a multitude of other crafts. Pretty much I do a little bit of everything. I have a Facebook page devoted to my sewing, quilting, and yarn crafts (PM me if anyone wants the link). I've also started sewing purses to try to make some extra cash on the side. And then there's gardening. Haven't gotten my veggie garden going this year yet, but we have several fruit trees in our yard (orange, tangerine, lemon, loquat, cherry, and an apple that isn't looking too great, also several cane berries and grape vines we are using to make a fruiting hedge between us and the neighbors since we have less privacy after taking out our horrible pepper tree), a native plant garden, and different flowers and sapling trees waiting to go in the ground when they get big enough (irises, roses, kalancho, river birch, flowering dogwood, redbud, spider plants, etc). Great ways to keep busy, and enough variety that nothing gets boring.

Besides the obvious reptile hobby, things I would probably include as hobbies would be:
-Art (I'm more of a cartoonist/manga-style person)
-League of Legends (I would say videogames in general, but LoL is the only game I can say I play consistently, since there's no "end")
-Anime/manga
-Sleeping
I also have tons of "mini-hobbies" that I get caught up in for short periods of time. If it catches my interest I'll read/watch things about it almost obsessively until I can tell everybody tons of things about the subject (much to their annoyance lol). I think I know more random facts than probably anyone else I know.

Oh no, you would there's nothing wrong with it! I like guns. I just originally didn't post pictures of the dogs because they weren't *DOING* the things that make me think hobby. The more pictures that got posted the less I cared about the dogs not being on an agility course or in a trial/the photo being representative of what I do with them.

Re: Other Hobbies!
I hike, run, hunt around for bones and skulls in the woods, draw, read, run an online store that sells oddities, and play basketball. There needs to be more time in each day so I can have more hobby time!

And yes, I definitely accept snakes as currency! (Or partial trade because snakes cost more than most of the stuff I make/sell.)

Nice Swiss camo Pit! That brought back memories of a set I had when I was a kid.

They do take a lot of tinkering and tuning to keep them running well. I haven't run mine in years. I dumped tons of money into it, put in a new motor and barely broke it in before it started collecting dust. It can also be tough to find places to run them. A little pile of titanium and aluminum running 50+ mph is not the safest thing to be playing with in a residential yard. :rolleye2:

I don't have any pictures on my work computer, but my hobbies are:
Camping
4 Wheeling
Motorcycles
R/C cars with my son

Deep Sea Fishing

ChrisS- Love your chicken photo! I want to keep chickens (once we move into a house) but they are *technically* illegal in my city and I don't want to move, say, 45 minutes outside of town to own them. :/ What breeds do you have and are they kept for eggs, meat, or pets?

Right now we only have mutts, the roo is an Easter egger and we have 2 black stars and one red star. They are kept for eggs and pets. We have kept meat birds in the past. As long as you keep only hens and keep your numbers low you shouldn't have any problems keeping them where ever.

Chris- I think I'm starting to get a closet mancrush on you. First the lightsaber now disc golf :wuv: :)
Sho- We need to get a turbo with an obnoxious BOV and upgrade the suspension on your car. And slightly wider tires. ;) :D

Haha! Trouble isn't always a bad thing. hehe.
Unsolicited tire recommendation: Continental Extreme contacts. High performance all weather. Had them on 2 cars and boy did they stick in anything, even with me pushing them to the limits most normal people wouldn't go. Safety warning: Do Not drive near me when I'm in the driver's seat of a sports car, It'll make your pants brown. :D

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll take a look at them. So far Dunlop Direzza Star Specs are at the top of my list. Should be able to go a little wider on the stock wheels too...:)
