    My "other" pass time/hobby is woodworking. Right now I am rebuilding the shelving/storage in my garage. That way I'll be better organized and have more room to do woodwork projects, like a stacker system for my tanks! Oh back to fish again.

    I coach a boys soccer team...been coaching for 15 years now, in Burnaby and Ladner. Besides that and fishkeeping and vainly attempting to keep up with my two kids...who has time for hobbies?? Downtime is spent reading, watching movies.

    Kids are getting old enough (7 & 5) to start going for longer hikes, etc, which is something I seem to remember enjoying...
    110 gallon Mixed Peacocks & Mbunas.
    65 gallon - 2 Koi Angels, misc. cories, BN pleco, zebra danios, rummynose and cardinal tetras

    10 gallon Swordtails, betta, dwarf frog
    15 gallon Aulonocara baenschi fry tank

    Tango, the golden labrador
    Salty, the panda bear hamster
    2 kids (my favourite pets)

    I like to have at least one major building or reno project each spring/summer.

    Last year it was building my cedar pergola over the BCA deck.

    This year it will be building an 8' x 12' x 10' tall wood and double-ply polycarbonate greenhouse to house my other hobby, which is citrus farming.

    In the spring/summer/early fall, I do a lot of gardening in my backyard since it is something I can do with Felicia that is outdoors and provides us with almost all our fresh veggies and fruits for half the year.

    I used to do a lot of mountain biking, camping and boating. Used to have an 18.5' speedboat when I lived up in Powell River with a 220hp BMW inboard motor. It could (and did) literally do circles around the BC Ferries. Sold it before I moved back down here.
