So, what does everyone do to kill spare time? I play the banjo and sing in a bluegrass band, volunteer as a scout leader and do a little target shooting.

    Archery, fishing, hunting, camping, four wheeling, cooking, pistol shooting, doing my nails, doing makeup, going shopping, drawing, painting, reading, writing... How's that for a crazy mix? :tongue:

    Knitting, crocheting, sewing, paper crafting, baking/cake decorating (that one is a hobby that got out of control), fishing, target shooting, coloring (and I use sparkly gel pens so there!) I would really love to take a painting class.

    My husband says my hobby is "having hobbies"

    Shooting with a fire arm or a bow?

    SCA perhaps? I don't play much any more, but I still hit an occasional war now and then.

    I always have some sort of crazy hobby. Right now I'm really into aerial arts. I've actually gotten paid to perform now, so... I also write books in my spare time (get paid for those too). In the past I've been into belly dance, fire arts, and equestrian activities. In the summer I also like to mountain bike, hike, camp, canoe...

    My husband and I have recently started painting. I mostly like physical hobbies, though. For me to consider it a hobby, I have to do it consistently and not just dabble.

    Build, shoot and repair machine guns, if it's not belt-fed it's not really a gun....

    I guess my fitness would be a big hobby for me as it occupies a lot of my time...cycling, lifting, hiking, swimming, golf, etc. I also love to cook and prepare most of the meals in my home. I've recently gotten into food fermentation as well which is pretty cool. I'm also an avid camper and enjoy fishing even though I totally suck at it.

    Camping, Hiking/Walking, Geo Caching, Fishing, Swimming, just to name a few! Would love to do more trap shooting, that's pretty fun, but my hubby won't take me anymore, said I was too good or something.

    I have taken up breading show pigeons. It is also known by the term "bading." Right now I am just a journeyman bader, as I have not been doing it long and have a lot to learn. I am studying under a master, however. So I hope that before too long, I can earn my certification as a master. The day I become a master bader will be a very exciting and exhilirating day for sure.
