I used to really enjoy smoking something that wasn’t cigars haha but I’m in the public sector now so that’s been put on hold until retirement, used to really enjoy growing what I smoked too, all organic loved building up super soil and just watch them go nuts! ? haha now it’s my bonsai and cacti...some good craft beer, I’m a IPA fanatic, I also enjoy a good build, grow box, patio, room addition etc...I’m good with my hands ?

Boy this took a hard right turn didn't it? Another thing keeps my mind are the dogs.. they usually keep me company when i am outside with the koi, had to fish them out when they thought they could walk over the top pond in winter....

I guess I started this....so I should probably have some input. I make knives sometimes, I opened my own body shop for 5 years, I like mechanical/artsy things, and I definitely enjoy a good smoke/drink paired with a grill. Cars have always been a major part of my life as well, included a picture of my rescue pup in my 240z. Pipes made by yours truly.

I like finding and rehabbing vintage audio equipment. Currently have a pair of Ohms in the garage ready to get worked on next.

Reading, gardening, music (guitar, sax, & singing), woodworking, triathlon (waning since knee injury), fishing, volunteer work...
Way too many things. The things I lack are time and natural talents.

I love how many shared hobbies there are. I didn't mention music as a hobby or initially mention cooking/cookingout/grilling. And I saw a mention for metal \m/

I see opposed cylinders, but that looks like a cast manifold? Is that a bug engine or something else? I think I see oil tubes and i think the distributor is in the right place.... I guess gear head should be on my list as well haha.
