I am just interested in taking an informal poll as to what the members do for hobbies when they are not scuba diving.
I'll start it off- I also like to fix, computers, setup home networks. any takers.....?

other hobbies, hobbies... reading the bboards like mnscuba, computers and software (no games), the shooting sports and firearms, hunting, doing google searches on everything I have a question or interest in, like to play basketball (even if I'm getting a bit old for that one), lately, designing houses on the computer, but my dream hobby will be turning an MCI or Prevost into a motorhome someday. My list could go on and on.. motorcycles, carpentry, mechanics, and of course.. the grand kids and family.
I found it on e-bay....

There's life outside of the water?
Biking- Road and mountain, although pulling my daughter in the Burley trailer is what I seem to do the most nowadays.
Kayaking- I own a dive kayak and a very sweet surfski that I use on the local lakes and on Michigan. I've also paddled in La Paz and through the Apostle's.
Photography- mostly underwater and family pictures. Recently switched from film to digital.
Skiing, when there's snow. Both XC and telemarking.
Surfing scuba boards during nap times. ;D

Outside of the diving thing
Soccer - going to our boys soccer games four times a week since it is about that season
Cycling - I am one of the strange ones laying on my back with the chainring way out in front about 60-80 miles a week. I will make the generalization that recumbents are pretty cool. The wife and I also go tandem with each of us pulling one of our boys on trailer bikes on the weekends.
Photography - After going digital a few years ago I bought a DSLR over the winter and have been having a lot of fun with it shooting family and nature.
Kayaking and Canoeing - Kayaking by myself, canoeing with the family
Snowshoeing during the winter. I tried sandshoeing and leafshoeing but they don't have the same feel.

I have way too many hobbies and they are all expensive.

Fixing stuff, Sailing, Downhill/Water skiing, Dancing, Board games, Vollyball
