List your other hobbies/interests

[Boyd]

What are your other hobbies, interests, activities? I know many train buffs/modellers are car nuts also. Sports, chess, computer geek, politics, fishing.

Well, other than the O-gauge trains, I have a small interest in Live steam trains, & my boy & I play a lot of chess in the winter time. Not much interest in sports, though we watch the Indians baseball games all the time & always hope they win ! Thanks, John

Hello All: Anything I love to do that I don't get paid for!!!

I could be locked in a USA Hoby shop for the rest of my life and be quite happy.

Acting is something that enjoy immensly. Throughout high school, I was involved in drama productions and am actually studying acting in university right now.

Writing is something else I enjoy. I have wrote some screenplays and currently am in the middle of writing another. I also have an idea for another one that I intend to write sometime, but it is currently on the back burner.

I'm also something of an antique collector. I've always had a love for things of the past and accumulate a lot of vintage stuff through garage sales and other sources.

I'm also a big time classic movie buff. This interest in itself is not unusual, but when you're my age it is. Not a lot of 19-year-olds are more familiar with movies and stars from the 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's than current ones.

In addition, I also enjoy reading a lot.

I love playing with my two sons, restoring my 1950 40' Matthews yacht, working on my Hot Rods, the shooting sports, working on a pro NHRA drag race team, creating roaring fires on cold winter nights.

Dvd collecting.
Woodworking.
Doing legos with the kids.
Still read books when I get the time.
Just getting into the trains again - had some HO stuff, but this is more like what I enjoy - big, loud, flashy trains and accessories with lots of actions and sounds.

I'm a die-hard new york Yankees fan. Been collecting U.S. coins since 1946. Collecting and operating O-gauge trains since 1975. Actually had trains since I was 8. I won't tell you what year that was.
