Your Other Hobbies?

I have enjoyed photography for many years, especially macro shots such as
these:

I also playing guitar, which I find to be lots of fun.

Besides all sorts of numisma (metal, paper, etc.), I like amateur radio,
antique radios (I got a 1925 A****er-Kent 'breadbox'!!), books, maps
(especially National Geographic), fiesta ware, Souvenir cards and sheets,
Scout stuff, Texana & whatever else catches my fancy...

Mine are model railroads, primarily the 1920's era Wabash and Southern
Pacific, and also plastic model aircraft, primarily 1920-1940's Soviet
X-Planes. The first is because some of my ancestors worked on the
railroads, the latter because who knows?

Collecting things (books, musical instruments, old laboratory
glassware, maps, fossils). Gardening. I've often thought it would be
neat to try model railroading; but never really wanted to put in the
effort required to make a good model. What scale do you model in?

Hmmm, reminds me of a song

Flaming bubbles, in the tub...

Aladdin, that is also the only known safe way to light a fart. Fire

Being a U.S. Marine Corps veteran,I'm into all things military,but
especially aviation.
Am also into model aircraft,mostly 1/48th U.S. aircraft,but also have a
nice collection of WW2 craft from most warring nations,and have a huge
Bismark Battleship that I've been working on,on and off,for 3 years.
Next project will likely be a Panther or M1A1 tank,for the sake of variety.
I'm a long time communications enthusiast .. Scanners,shortwave
utilities..And am musically inclined,playing the guitiar,violin and piano.

In addition to collecting coins i also enjoy collecting books on
cricket and coin collecting.

I also enjoy photography and gardening with a little amatuer astonomy
thrown in for good measure.

I occasionaly enjoy arguing with people on line.

I enjoy doing various kinds of needlework; I actually have a chart I
made with a computer program of a Pan Pac half that I want to do, which
will nicely merge my two hobbies. If it ever gets done I'll post a link.
The one thing that has done more to kill my hobby time than anything
else lately is the Xbox I got the Hubby for Xmas. I never thought I
would like to play it myself, but I waste countless hours on that thing.

I also like to read.
