Re: Other hobbies
Are the things I do a hobby or is the hobby learning to do the things?
Activities I do often or because I need to:
woodworking
maintaining a garden & fruit orchard
reading
motorcyling
Things I learned to do to take up time and keep my hands busy but do not do often:
cross stitch
tatting
bobbin lace
engine repair

Howdy folks,
In addition to woodworking, I love model trains and my MGB.
Have fun,

The Greatness officially starts
Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them.

Woodworking, trains, and British roadsters.
A combination approaching perfection in my mind.
Alas, I am down to just the first two, but fondly remember my TR4A, TR6, and a couple of "B"s from days past. Enjoy them all!

Re: Other hobbies
I have a few hobbies as so many of us have, and one of mine is writing Christian poetry. I've done it though the years and I find it helps me to put down on paper in prose some of the things we sometimes find it hard to talk about with folks face to face.
Some years ago I was visiting with a young person who was challenged by some things he was studying in school that he couldn't put down in words himself regarding how he felt about the subject.
I shared my thoughts with him and told him to keep reading other material that discussed it from a variety of perspectives and see what really resonated with him. He made a comment that he would like to find something as simple to understand as a nursery rhyme, yet profoundly deep in the subject.
Later in the quiet of that evening, the attached poem was penned.
I am including this poem as an illustration of my hobby, not to get into the subject matter per se in these forums. There are other forums for that.
To illustrate my hobby and from the perspective of that discussion with the young man I wrote...
