Your OTHER hobbies

Post by discordanian »

Based on what's happening in the What is the significance of your forum user name and the Map of Forum Users threads we know that people here are into more than just Wood Working.

Personally I'm into music and I work as a software developer (mostly on *nix systems) so computers and computer programming is another hobby of mine.

What else is everyone doing when they aren't making a big mess in the shop? :D

Wife and I love to travel in our RV. Close trips or across the US.
Getting ready for a trip to Okinawa to visit our son, DIL and GRANDKIDS. The trip is 18 months away but, we'll do plenty of other trips between now and then Of course, I always try to make some WW stops when I can sneak 'em in:D .

Gee, who has time for other hobbies!

Lets see, when I do have time, Stained Glass(since I was 15), golf(Started at 30), travel(always have, always will). Not necessarily in that order. I am also a computer person. I manage a group of tech's that keep our network up and running as well as laptops and PC's.

I've been woodworking since my Grandfather taught me around age 10 or 11. I recently started building acoustic guitars. It's much more challenging than furnature. :D
