I'm actually semi-retired,I'll go nuts just sitting at home,so figure I'll take the summer off and then go to work at something.Heck if I stay home any longer Krisdeann will hang me,spending way too much with this new hobby

....but I keep telling her....its for the boy!

(she just hasn't figured its me and not my son)

Yeah R/C, fly-fishing and reef tanks are there any more expensive hobbies?

I used to race 1/10 electric truck pretty seriously but the expense of competing with factory drivers got out of control.

I just got a Kyosho one-metre sailboat to build when I recover from surgery to add to a collection of 2 gas trucks, gas car, 3 electric trucks, electric boat, heli, electric plane and another sailboat.

Well I guess I could be a golfer that would add up as well.
Still you can drop a grand on a good fly rod and reel.

Any one up for some truck bashing around McKenzie in a couple months?

Thanks alot Murray!! Krisdeann seen the sled and wants one

I found the trick to any to any hobby is to buy two! We now have 2 helicopters,2 1/8 scale nitro buggies,2 1/18 scale electric stadium trucks and 2 micro electrics.Once you involve your spouse in your hobbies,you have it made....

Fly fishing is a spiritual thing.
