Wow! That's a great list. I know several that crochet. It's pretty amazing to see what they create.....and knitting, that's kind of other level to me.
Glad to hear there are still many who pass that on. Good for you!
Oh, and what's Magic Arena?
It's the online component for Magic: the Gathering, a trading card game that's been around since 1993.1 -

Nice. Don't have as many spots hear to hike......
Glad to hear I'm not alone on the loud music. Was working last week remoteand was at home by myself......had my entire first floor shaking. It was awesome. 😎🤘😎
Nothing like hiking a hard trail! Gets the blood flowing, heart racing, invigorating!!
I’m obsessed with music!! I have it on about 75% of the time! The louder the better- that way you can actually feel it..lol...
Right! Saw Breaking Benjamin in a small venue in the city......it was awesome. Bass drum hit so hard I could feel it deep in my chest. Fantastic! 😎🤘😎1 -
I make pastries in my kitchen.
Which is also why I’m still here.7 -

Man, I love to cook, but I can't make stuff like that. I'm convinced it's truly an art.
Fantastic!1 -

Oh wow.....I can relate to this so much.
Hwy 1/PCH in Cali was always a bucket list for me being from the midwest. Got to do it twice. It was incredible and unbelievably relaxing.1 -

I'm on the east side of the states..it was fun and relaxing.. from northern Virginia/DC area .. drove toward east to Ocean City Md.. drove along the coast...rode a ferry ended in Cape May.... nice quaint old town..
Almost did drove the west coastline.. visited/flew to San fran for couple days.
Rented a car ..ended driving west to Yosemite park instead.. stayed over night and drive back to San fran then flew back the following day.

Have never been east/ne......but planning to get to Boston sometime next year. Hoping I can roll down the coast that way.
If you make it back out to San Fran and have a chance, take the PCH out of Pacifica there.....you won't regret it. Went down to Santa Cruz the first tim. Super cool smaller town....boardwalk, etc......second time on further to Monterey.....both fabulous drives. 😎2 -

Love camping. How do you camp? I know lots of folks who do it all types of ways. We like to tent camp.0 -
On a regular basis, I listen to music, do yoga, go for walks, read, take baths, and get massages.
When I really need to reset, I travel to places and do naturey things. Costa Rica is my favorite.2 -

Beep really loud when you're in Boston....I'll come out and say hai to you and the fam!!😉😁🤗1 -
If I have time I dance....music is always a constant ....I read for work now so its not as relaxing but that used to be a lovely way to unwind....glass of wine....
Walks are great but I can't get out without kiddo so I just try to find things I can do from home
(With music on always)
Cooking/baking
Drawing/painting
Maybe some crafts
Anything I can get lost in....
Good thread!!🤗

That's a great talent.....keep it up. When you overcome your shyness you might be surprised.0 -

Nice. 😎
My wife's a big Gin lover. There's a fantastic distiller in Downtown KC that makes some of the best they've ever had. She's more of a Collins-style drinker though. 😁1
