It isn't always possible to jump in the jeep and head into the hills. So sometimes after a long day at work this is the next best thing.

I do the RC thing too. But with slow trucks instead of fast.

I also do the RC thing!

I have this Traxxas Rally that I am currently building. I also have a Rustler/Stampede conversion that is fun for bashing.

Other hobbies? You mean besides windsurfing, sailing, mtn biking, road biking, skiing, snowboarding, upland bird hunting, deer hunting, fly fishing, fly tying, beer brewing, scuba diving, photography, 3 basketball leagues, graduate night school, a house, a wife, a 5 year old son and a 9 year old daughter? Other than that not much...

Bicycles, both road bike & mountain bike. Motorcycling too. Hiking, cross-country skiing, fly fishing, hunting and shooting.

Then I'm out of time and money!

Enjoy Life!

I'm good for one of these long-list type posts! There's skydiving, rock climbing, snowboarding, BASE jumping, kiteboarding, motorcycles, practical shooting, paintball and other vehicles that are not Jeeps... But then I 'dabble' in so many little things on the side it makes my head spin.

Edit for fun pics:















And one for the road

I coach jr high football, coach little league baseball, and basketball. My son plays all 3, as well I try and hunt deer and turkey as often as work and life lets me. Then there is always taking the family camping. Then with all my left over time we take the quads out and see what trouble we can find. Last but my favorite is the family boat trips. Had to sell the Harley to buy the boat but worth the family time!!

I fly giant-scale RC planes (mostly mild-3D stuff in the 55cc range) and enjoy shooting of all sorts.

Scuba, shooting, hiking, gold panning, snowshoeing, mountain biking. I think that is it.

Great stuff here guys! I just had to add a few photos:

Jeeping is something my wife and I enjoy together. She's told me that she wants her own doggone Wrangler too. This one was mine, last I checked:


40th year of cross-country skiing. Hoping we get some more snow soon!


When there's no snow, I settle for hiking trails or bicycles. Sometimes even if there is snow!

57 years young, still hitting the hiking trails, and the gym:


Lots of miles on this old Cannondale, I think I've had it about 25 years. Still do a "century" or two every summer:


Fall is for hunting. Anymore I seem to get as much pleasure from helping a new hunter fill their tag. Yes, I do fill the freezer with wild game every year. Venison, bear, game birds... As well as salmon & steelhead!






And there's this motorcycle. We have adventures!





Regards, CW
