Default Jeep owners tend to be active. What are your hobbies?

I'm a full time single dad, so I do my hobbies less and less, but here's what I do:

- Surf
- Skate
- Cycle to and from work (20 miles total)

With the kids we go for trips all the time:
- Hiking
- Beach
- Camping
- Amusement parks
- Skate and bike parks

You'll rarely find me at home doing nothing. What do you folks do and where does your Jeep take you?

I'm usually pretty active, my daughter was born about 10 months ago, so for those past 10 months I've stayed home more than ever. so my hobbies are.
atv excursions. we try to take long trips that involve camping.
fishing.
restoring old cars (I haven't done this in a while)
mountain biking
anything to do with motorcycles.
and also almost any other sport outdoors.

I guess I could go on about all this, but this are the most important.

How long has your wife been a tattoo artist and does she work in a studio? I'm itching for another tat.

Photography for me, horses for the Mrs.

The Jeep is perfect for getting me where I need to be to get the shot. Only had it a few months now and in August am headed to Colorado for 10 days. Can't wait.

Can't do too much physical fun.

Too many spinal and knee issues.

Before the Jeep I spent a lot of time crusing up and down the Jersey Coast looking for and photographing old US Life Saving Service stations and Old Coast Guard stations for a book I'm putting together.

Also, wheeling is my hobbie.

My newest hobby is overtime....damn Jeeps....

I just like being outside and the Jeep helps me. My only outdoor hobby at this time is fishing. I don't have a boat, so I just look for accesible bank fishing spots.

I'm wanting to start hiking and kayaking.

I love camping, but my wife and I have two different ideas of what camping is.
