sharks Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Restart IPSC pistol shooting. Did it for 18 months a few years back when I was based in Indonesia but had to stop when I was posted to China. Enjoyed IPSC for a very short time as well, great stuff ! Would love to great back into it 3
Johneastridge Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Would love to take up reading for pleasure. I never have time to read things that I enjoy. Sailing would also be something really cool to learn!
avaldes Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I would like to learn to play guitar and piano. Lot's of GREAT hobbies mentioned above!! I fly RC gliders as one of my main hobbies. I am lucky to have been sponsored by Futaba for 20 years. I also shoot trap and do lots of reloading. They are wonderful ways to spend time and you can also involve your wife and kids. 1
nick2021 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I'd really like to brush-up on my second language and also get into bowhunting/flying again. Sadly, don't think I will have very much time to do any this year
finecigar Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I've always wanted to go cave exploring yet I have no idea where to start. And take culinary classes on next trip abroad, always put it on the back burner

JohnnyC Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 For me a hobby I always wanted to try would be Fly Fishing. In so far as learning a new skill I would love to learn how to speak other languages. I love to travel and it would great to speak to new friends in their own language. ( Ciao, Adios, Au revoir,auf Wiedersehen ) 2
madandana Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Speak Spanish. More than just Mos cervasas por favor.. 1
CaptainQuintero Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Get an old Enfield and pootle about the country roads visiting pubs Get into south Korean style archery Maybe combine them both into some kind of super hobby 1
Drguano Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Learn to pick winning lottery numbers. And (thanks for the reminder, mandandana) to speak Italian in time for the AmiCigar shindig: "Posso fumare un sigaro qui?""Vorresti fare un giro nel mio Ferrari?""Il vostro cane è molto brutto!" 1
santela Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Oh so many things... I do have some free time so I took up Spanish. It was largely inspired by my love for Cuban cigars. It's not going too well right now, extremely poor memories and a lack of discipline to study after class. I do speak two languages at native speaker level, so I am pretty proud of that. If I had a year off I would also like to obtain a pilot's license. Being able to call myself a pilot would be so satisfying. I'd appreciate it if anyone could point me to a good pilot school in SoCal. I want to pick up drawing again. Was doing some cleaning around the house and found my sketch book from my teenage years, I forgot how good I used to be! Now I can barely do convincing stick figures.
bigfunkyg Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Play Drums. I find drums the most intriguing of all instruments
ShortFatHokie Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I'd like to learn to play violin. But I fear that's not purely a pursuit of time, but it also requires skill, natural abilities and coordination.... where can I get those from?? Same as me. I had a band director in elementary school tell me that the only musical instrument I could play was the radio. I would love to have "musical ability". Since I can't "make" music, I'd love to learn other languages. Took three years of Spanish in college (many moons ago) plus I dated a young lady who was fairly fluent in Spanish so I became quite familiar with it. Can I speak it today? Nope. However, when I hear folks speaking it, I can understand enough to know what they are saying. Would love to "freshen up" my Spanish, as well as learn French, German, and Italian.
earthson Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 I've always wanted to go cave exploring yet I have no idea where to start. Do you live near any caves? Here in the southeast (Merka) we've got loads of caves thanks to the karst geology. I've loved exploring random corners of Mammoth Cave in Kentucky as part of the hydrological research I'm involved in. Plus, we know someone who's got a cave on their private property and is always willing to let us explore. For me, aikido, clandestine chemistry with a proper setup, and finally get down to practicing Spanish daily.
cigarbreak Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Given the time (and sometimes the money) I definitely would like to get into: Downhill Mountain Biking Race Car Driving (Pro Go Kart leading into full sized cars) Shooting Range/Target Practice Rolling Cigars I would love to find time to improve on Playing the drums Editing Digital Photography 1

As a child I used to go to some caves in Tennessee I believe it was but no unfortunately I am not near any caves that I know of. Always was overjoyed to explore- one of my ultimate bucket list is to go to Easter Island and visit caves. Wow, that sounds fantastic- I need a friend like that
Bostin Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I'd like to finish My theology exam, been working on it for 6 years now Skickas från min iPhone via Tapatalk
GavLew79 Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Spanish, French, German. Another degree, maybe Astrophysics. Reading - there's a pile of great books waiting for me on the shelf. Golf. Stocks and shares. Daily cigar smoking.
