Silly as it sounds I just love to drive. Should have been a trucker. My dream retirement is to sell the house and drive everywhere I haven't been before. Along the way seeking out every big thunderstorm possible. (would love to take up storm chasing in my later years) Obviously the Bears. Classical music. And last but not least, my family.
I'm the same way. If I didn't have a family, I'd consider trucking. Do a few years of long haul stuff then move to more regional or specialized driving.

The wife and I have agreed that when we're older we'd like to sell everything, get an RV and just live on the road most of the year.

Well, if you look at my hobbies (taking out the obvious, kid, wife) then restoring cars (about to do a frame off on a 1974 Landcruiser), paintball (semi pro), golf, basketball, and the consumption of beer (we have a ton of breweries where I live most within walking distance).

Man, road trips are awesome. That has pretty much gone out the window now with a 5 month old baby though.
Agreed. Both my wife and I love roadtrips, but the degree is different. She begins to get road-weary around 8-hours where I can do 15 no problem.

Besdies, it gets me to new and exciting shoot locations.

I play, write, and study "classical" music. Other than that? Travel. Make it out of the country at least once a year and am only a handful short on completing the states.

You'd get along with my dad. He's been playing for 50 years too. 18 guitars later the man is fuckin great. My friend plays for a lot of big country acts and swears if my dad quit his day job he could be playing with Clapton.

You in a band brotha!?

I had a blues band for about 6 years here, but we kind of drifted apart..There really isnt a huge call for blues down here, and there are quite a few blues bands to share the work..I do a lot of studio work now and sit in with other bands..

Here is a recording we did a few years ago

I like vinyl records and love listening to needles hitting black circles.
I also like making films.
Here's one if you're interested:

Free to Prime members. If you get bored this weekend, check it out.


I will watch. I assume you are privy to your movie being available on another site? And you don't mind if it is watched there?

Aw, screw it, I'll pay the $5. Making movies is one of the unrealized dreams in my life, and I love to support young locals here.

my passions in life used to be selfish. Now its just doing stuff with my two nephews and niece. Aside from that gunsmithing, target range, cars, binge watching tv shows

i used to read allot but got hooked on a few games on my cell phone. I quit playing those games cold turkey though lol i do go through withdrawals once in awhile

Several of these really surprised me. Interesting to see what other Bears fans are passionate about. I forgot to add riding my bike. Now that I have moved into the foothills it is amazing riding country. 80 miles from Yosemite National Park.

I do it for work, but I would still do it for fun if I wasnt getting paid...geology. But also traveling (most of it happens because of work anyway), bass, archery elk hunting, fishing, shooting, rock climbing, snowboarding, homebrewing, swimming, triathlons. Depends on the season really.

34. Just too many things to do here in Colorado! My wife yells at me for having too many hobbies. They change over time but then I come back to them and enjoy more every time. I'm scared of the day I can't do them so I try to cram it all in. I used to have bad knee pain since I was 10. Got knee surgery twice a couple years ago and got it fixed. Now I want to take advantage of my increased mobility.
