1 and a half and 4 and a half year old daughters. Keep me pretty busy. Just started making kydex holsters for myself. Figured it will save me money over the life of my shooting days.

Shooting and mountain biking. Just got in to mountain biking this year after doing a bike patrol officer class last year. It's a blast.

Hobby? I go to church; sleep; eat; work; spend a little time at the computer. Right now I am starting up kefir production.

Take your pick.

Playing around on the internet lately. But in the last 8 years, wildlife/bird photography and all things MINI. After having a huge falling out with MINIUSA, the USA portion of BMWUSA, I got rid of the last of my 4 MINIs. What was bad is that since I didn't do these multi-thousand mile MINI runs anymore, I wasn't out in the field photographing as much. Also, my ISP cancelled the server to my newsgroups where I would post my images. So now, just as the name of my iPhone states, "No Hobby."

Motorcycling and mountain biking. My MTB is a rigid, single-speed 29er, because I'm just that awesome .
I also like to cook.

We have a large group that like to play airsoft together. I also snowboard, shoot, hunt, fish, and play way too many videogames.

Church, prayer, reading, Cop Talk, caring for an invalid family member. Not necessarily in that order.

Working in my yard. Pulling weeds and hacking blackberries can be therapeutic.

Shooting, mountain biking and 4 wheeling. Don't know which is my favorite but I do more mountain biking than any of the others because its the cheapest.

Gardening, birding, photographing wildlife and kicking a punching bag that's on the garage floor. Never know when I'm going to need to get someone's attention while they're laying on the ground.

I play Xbox, I workout (cardio and weights 4x weekly) and I enjoy time with family.

My most enjoyable hobby is spending time with my other half. She is a beautiful woman and I'm amazed that she is in my life. Truly a blessing from God. I know, I know...sappy. She doesn't ask about the job and I don't tell her, she is my escape. We do everything together, we attend mass, go on trips, dinners, day outings, spend time at home...
