    Art, art history, fashion, gastronomy, music (I play classical piano), meditation, traveling, and my mom’s stubborn elitist dog who would only do tricks for organic peanut butter (she spoils him hard). He’s very cute though.

    So this is a long list:

    Hiking
    Camping (you know.. in actual tents and with no A/C)
    Painting
    Drawing
    Knitting
    Crochet
    Baking
    Magic: the Gathering
    Comics
    Anime
    Animation (in general)
    Video Games (specifically RPGs)
    Reading
    Singing
    Collecting Vinyls
    Entomology (study of insects and arachnids)

    I'm sure there's more, but those are the main ones, I think.

    Seismology. Geology. I study earthquakes, geysers, thermal areas.

    LOL I first read that as "Scientology"

    I enjoy traveling, weird building projects (I made a couple viking helmets and built a loft and a ninja warrior course) and lately I've been back to practicing piano. I'm also half-way through writing a novel.

    I collect old furniture, I also love to upcycle but only things that are broken or need a lot of tlc, I decoupage as well and am just getting into gardening at the moment. As well as my dogs and organising my kids hobbies and social lives, anything creative I’ll try it.

    My work is in the semiconductor design business as an IC layout designer. Presently I am a subcontractor without assignment. My underlying livelihood is in the buying and selling of calendar spreads in my IRA. I say it is underlying because I do it weekly and can live well off it if need be. My oldest and fondest hobby is chess, although I'm not as good as a teenager. My next project is to learn Alpha Zero's favorite openings. The Google machine has effectively pruned 500 years of opening theory.

    What else? Well, family and such.

    I enjoy most anything outdoors. My kids and I have spent most of the summer at the creek behind our house swimming and building forts and sand castles haha. Like another member had mentioned, I also restore old furniture. But my biggest time probably goes to church. Gotta give thanks for all The Big Man has done. 😁Haha

    Too many for the time available!

    -Cross stitch, mostly fantasy or halloween designs. Starting to branch out into embroidery and other needlepoint styles.

    -Reading: fantasy, some sci-fi, some lite detective (think miss marple, not bourne)

    -Video games: JRPG mostly. Play on all consoles. Currently playing Final Fantasy 14, Atelier Sophie & Mysterious book (PS4), Eden (visual novel on steam) and Nancy Drew PC Game. Fave series (that isn't the usual of Mario, Zelda, etc) is either "Tales of ..." or "Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons"

    Go to a lot of concerts. Love live music. In fact, my wife and I have tickets to 5 Concerts between now and September.

    I like to hike. Sounds like it is fitness related, but it's not. I usually grab a couple cigars each evening and head out for a 6 mile hike. Not for fitness' sake. For sanity's sake. Like hitting the reset button after a long day.

    Between May and October, I usually spend a long time working in the lawn and garden.

    Good lord that is some beautifully green grass. Would take cigar and lawn care suggestions from you any day.
