I like to build and turbo my hondas lol, snowboarding, hiking, fishing, cod black ops, and spend time with the gf. Just starting photography at the moment.

Sweet, you have a giant Koi pond. We have a pond in our front yard. We were going to tear up the majority of our backyard this past summer for a huge pond but the kids wanted one more summer of a big yard before we dig it up for a huge pond. We are going to do a big pond next fall in the back. The front yard pond has been such a joy that we decided to do a pond in the backyard where we spend more time. Either way, we still get to enjoy our aquarium from the front yard or backyard

our offleash park is fantastic other than people not always cleaning up after their dogs it's about 4 km of nice treed trails

<--- Denny I'm a lady haha but i'm not sure your GF would enjoy any of my hobbies we also build lots of computers and drink copious amounts of beer .... after thinking of all these things I think i need to cut down hobbies...no wonder I never have time for anything...maybe I should just quit working that would free up some time =)

Hmmm,

In no particular order:
Fish Tank
Mtn. Biking - Try to take at least one trip a year
I'm a car guy - I try to make at least one show in the US a year.
Home Theater - This one is pretty tame, I don't go for the high-end stuff.
And like others - Beer Drinking...lol

Magic... I just pulled out the 20K cards I have. Time to Ebay those. Haven't played in far too long. I have from Tempest (and a few of the smaller sets prior to that) through to Urza's. It was about that time that the rules started changing up too much. My friends stopped playing, and well, you can't exactly play alone now can you!

As for WoW... LOL, I play that one BC expansion was good, Wrath was a bit silly (too bad, good story line, and zones) Cata so far (world has been blown up) is looking really nice! Can't wait for tomorrow! Release day

Wow takes up most of mine and my wifes (yep, she plays) time. Living in a small apartment doesn't leave too much room for too many hobbies!

Very true my problem with wow was that I was in a high end raiding guild had all tier 3 epic gear full transcendence then bc came out and got better greens in my first 2 hours of playing than I had in my whole /played time

Moving from BC & knowing no one out here that played it is the reason I stopped. I have no idea what my total count of cards is anymore. I did have it all priced out at one time, but no idea where that database is anymore.

+1 on wow's stupid expansions. My wife and I used to play, then we had 2 kids and well... changing diapers took over raiding time.

So as for hobbies... fish tank, new house and 2 kids under 2 years old doesn't leave much time for other stuff. I do sneak time to play SC2 sometimes, but that's usually ended shortly by a screaming child.

I enjoy fishing, but i only got out 4 or 5 times this year, so i don't know if that qualifies a hobby anymore. I definitly enjoy it, standing by the river, drinking a beer on a nice summer day doesn't get much better.
