Thread: What else are you all into?

I read some (fiction). Work on my Antique Ford tractor a little. Shoot when I can fit it in. do a little home improvement as needed. I'm in the process of learning to horseback ride English style. But most of my time is spent training my dogs.

I'm another actor. See www.godsdrama.org for particulars on our company. Also collect smoking pipes (and smoke them), walking-sticks, hats, and knives. I'm treasurer for our local pipe club, www.tsptc.org.

Reading, Aggressive Rollerblading (like ramps and stuff), Playing guitar, a little bit of stonecarving, video editing (comes with the rollerblading) and at the moment I'm trying to create some colognes. I gave my first attempt to my mother today who was very pleased with the result.

I'm really into cycling. In fact, a couple of years ago, I strapped my panniers to my bicycle and cycled from CT to Los Angeles, then two years later, cycled down to Key West. Hence the Trekker nick-name. I road across country on a Trek 830.

I was also an actor for a while and did some off-off broadway work in a play called BACKSTAGE BITCHES and played the Sheriff in a road show of TO KILL A MOCKING BIRD.

I also write Civil War mysteries and had one published a couple of years ago in ALFRED HITCHCOCK'S MYSTERY MAGAZINE. Currently, when not being a mortgage broker, I'm working on a series of novels based on the characters I created for that short story.

...too many things:


-Tae Kwon Do (second degree black belt)
-Running (I am slow, but my wife and dog do it with me)
-Heritage vegetable gardening
-Artisan bread baking
-Flintlock firearms (making and shooting)
-Coaching high school debate
-Coppersmithing



...and a day job...

Dave

Hunting and photography.

I've just converted a 20' shipping container into a darkroom and it's heaven just to lock myself away and see what comes up in the developer.

Fencing, obviously, plus flyfishing and flytying, some woodworking. right now, I'm finishing my basement when I don't have a competition.
