    I think all of these have previously been mentioned: karaoke, scrapbooking, baking, travelling.

    High five on the board gamers. Although neither one of these has an actual "board" - love Taboo and Scattergories. Especially fun after a few bevies.

    Wow, this made me see the other side of all our daily grind work outs. Its great to see everyone can still enjoy things. That's always a plus and a good motivation. I also enjoy some good acoustic guitar playing, and I really love to sing. In fact I tried out for Americas Got Talent this last January. Didn't get a call back though.. >=o|

    I'm also a roller coaster fan and love them all!! The faster, the scarier the better! I also want to try sky diving one day!!
  • I'm basically a big nerd. During the summer I dress up as Black Widow with a cosplay group ad we go to charity events and fundraisers. It's a blast!! Other than that I'm usually researching new costumes to make or gaming.

    I feel like I'm sort of "between hobbies" right now. In addition to working full time, for 13 years I was the director of a dog rescue group but finally gave that up a couple of years ago. I still do fostering for other dog rescue groups but that doesn't take much time. This summer I and some concerned neighbors worked to demand the prosecution of a man who was starving his horses a couple of miles down the road...that was lot of letter writing, social media, calling local lawmakers, getting the media involved, etc...the good news is that it all worked and his trial on animal cruelty charges is next month. So I guess at my heart I'm an animal activist?

    Anyway, I would like to start volunteering again but haven't figured out what I want to do yet, so outside of my paying job I mostly dink around on the computer, watch TV, read and work in the yard.
  • I rock climb and do yoga as a hobby. Even though some people consider it a workout I don't, it is just something I like to do. I love to read, shop, visit vineyards, and do anything crafty (knitting, crochet, cross-stitch, jewelry making, soap making).
