My Other Hobby
Most of us have hobbies other than fishkeeping, so here's as good a place as any to talk about them.
The reason I started this thread, I must admit, is that I can't find the other thread where I was supposed to post these pics. In that thread we were discussing various things, and the subject of my woodworking came up a bit. I said I'd post pics of a couple of current projects, but I never got around to it until now. So, with no further ado, as if there had been any previous ado, here they are at last:
1- Treasure Chest Toybox
I can't make these fast enough to make people happy.
2- Lighthouse
This is still quite unfinished, but you should get the general idea. There will be a thin black pinstripe dividing each red & white stripe, which I assure you will give it a much better look.
This is the last one I did, so you can see where this one is going.

Well, that's it for now from me. Let's hear about your other hobbies!

All of my hobbies have to do with fish. Be it fish keeping or fishing, it's all I do. As I type, I need to go across the street and finish setting up a ten gallon for my neighbors!

Pool as in billiards, right? I shoot some pool myself. We got a table from my cousin's boyfriend before they moved to Colorado. We have an Air Hockey table (Looking for the pucks now for the NYE party...) from our neighbors who moved. We got an awesome dart board (built in TV scoring) for dirt cheap at an estate sale. We got a Fußball table from my Aunt after my other cousin went to college. All we're missing now is a Ping-Pong table and a 180 gallon SW fish tank in the living room!!!

Bowling is my other hobby, and I am an assistant coach for my high school team that I played on the last 2 years.

Hobby
I drive Dirt Track Go-Karts on a paid professional level, usually Clay and Dirt ovals and other types. Usually the tracks speed levels range from 60-80 mph. I will attach some pictures of the end of this season, I won the championship this year! New followed by old pictures will be attached below if you are interested!
Other than kart racing, I am huge on mechanics and car repair, and electronics....Big into all kinds of electrical modding/ case modding / all that good stuff.

9 lbs, thats fly weight. With a ball that light, you have to swing your arm straight every time. Its so easy to go crooked. But a light ball won't mess up your elbow or your back. So stick to your guns.

I don't really have any decent hobbies except singing  But I want to try getting into making fancy cakes, like the ones on those TV shows. My husband says if I can make him a zombie cake for his homecoming, that I get major brownie points. The problem is I can't sculpt/draw to save my life. Might need to enlist some artistic help!
http://www.youtube.com/user/SRHSBandChic?feature=mhum <------ Youtube channel. I'm currently working on writing my own first serious song too. Lyrics aren't hard at all, it's coming up with a new fancy shmancy tune that sounds original!

I bowled a 130 (ish). It took me forever to get my arm straight. Two consecutive strikes followed by a nine that should have been another strike. Oh well...
