Well bottles being my first love....I do other things. Most people would be surprised about. I run a travel agency in my spare time.....(like I really have much of that) and I think one person mentioned hoarding as a hobby. But for the sake of the people around me I like to call it collecting. Hoarding has such a bad connotation to it....lol My newest collection in progress is Davey Crockett crap.....I have alot of vintage Disnyana Being I specialize in disney trips. I have been to Disneyworld 13 times.....june will be number 14. (still havnt done everything).

I also bake alot.....watched Ace of cakes and being he is based in Baltimore I thought it would be pretty cool to decorate cakes. So I took some classes. Actually alot of classes.

Well when im not slinging dirt digging bottles i like to spend my spare time slinging mud during the summer months.Me and my son have 2 mud bogging trucks we run in mud bogs in West Virginia,Virginia,and have went far south as Georgia.I guess you could say im still a kid at heart but it is a fun way to spend a weekend but it can get expensive.

Usually, I'm running around chasing after autographs. Not quite what some people call stalking, but close. Baltodigger, been to disney many a time also. Love driving the family nuts with disney trivia and finding hidden mickeys. Going again in june and finally taking the underground tour. I also enjoy cooking for the family. I joined a gym in january and have been going pretty regular. I have a goal I'm working on. Every day I am going to do something fun, something healthy, something in the house, and something in the yard. I'm also working on my ancestry. I'm back to 1790's so far.

I like most anything outdoors, but I like fishing saltwater and freshwater and camping with the family.

Wife is disabled so she is 'retired'. Me, well, student at the moment. Getting back into the computer biz so to speak. I'm a Mechanical Designer with some manufacturing process sprinkled on top, PC Specialist and general IT guy. I'm a MCSA at this moment, finishing up my MCSE, and then hoping to get a Network Admin or System Engineer job soon.

But, the other passion my wife and I share beyond bottles is riding our Harleys. Unfortunately, the one we bought in '08 for touring got sent to the chopping block and now we are both grounded. 15 months on unemployment has taken it's toll.

I'm almost finished building a mechanism which will cause the Earth to suddenly rotate in the opposite direction,

Chuck. You are a nut. Please give us advance warning BEFORE you implement this. Because if my calculations are correct, everything will fly upward during that awkward transition between spin-directions. It might be a good time to find glass that is at the bottom of the ocean or a deep lake.

Hey Laur.
Where can we go to get a sample of the writing?

Cool pictures and stories everyone. Balto, that cake looks delicious, but too nice to eat. Reading everyone else's posts, I forgot to mention I enjoy photography, history and geneaology too (although I haven't made much progress in that area). Bob, I wrote for the newspaper for a short time, but hope to write a book. I have a couple of ideas, but other things always seem to come up!
I forgot to add that I'm always writing poetry.

Work takes up a lot of time time - I'd like to retire in a few years. I'm into genealogy as are a few other people in the forum and I love travel. I have a big family and am close to all of them. We visit and are visited a lot and I like it that way. Hobbies other than bottles include collecting sea shells and collecting and fixing antique clocks, neither of which I do much anymore. Bottles is the number one hobby....Ron
