Hey Guys
In addition to air guns what other hobbies do you guys enjoy, I enjoy model building and model railroading ( not so much anymore though, too expensive and kind of lost the bug for it ) and I enjoy playing sports games on the PC and PS3 and am interested in Military history. Nothing beats a warm summer day outside reading a good military book 
And of course watching Baseball, football and Hockey laying in front of the TV, and yes I consider this a hobby,lol  |

Family time is great...anything with the fam.
Shooting powder burners.
Building websites.
Playing and hosting online games.
Hunting, camping.
Reading a good book while sitting on the back porch on a cool morning.
Music.
I do all these things with my family, which makes them extra fun. |

| I also like model trains. I just can't work on them till I get my basement finished. That part sucks. |

I used to skateboard but my knees are already telling me it's a good time to stop. Making music on my computer takes up a lot of time, mostly techno and drum n bass (techno is a genre, not a way to address all electronic music), I also do a bit of DJing. I play real instruments too, bass, a bit of guitar, I can wail on the drums a bit and toy with keyboards once in a while. Frisbee golf is another one. Taking things apart and tinkering with them. Being outside in general is always high on the to-do list, I'm pretty open minded about a lot of things so when I'm not shooting stuff I'm doing pretty much whatever is around to do.
I'd love to get more into wood and metal working but don't really have the tools available |

I've been a road bicyclist all my adult life. I've toured and raced and all that. Currently I just stay fit and get a few rides in every week including some fast and competitive group rides on the weekends.
I also play classical guitar. I'm OK on a good day but suffer from stage fright, pathetic for a 49 year old so I mostly play for my cat. I suffer through playing for friends and family every now and again.
Here's a short baroque peice for your enjoyment (I hope): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3kaWMuV57w&feature=related
I love classical music and the wife and I attend events quite frequently.
I smoke a pipe a few times a week which I combine with porch time and reading. We never got around to having kids and that helps with hobbies.
