My other hobby is duck hunting. Not to be a bragger here, but last year I had a once in a life time shot. I hit two wood ducks with one shot. This is the luckiest I have ever been with my hobbies.

Ha I'm glad there is another waterfowler here!

I shot 2 woodies with one pull of the trigger too.... Different trigger though, it was one week after season closed so I had to opt for the camera. I had one time when I raised my gun and pulled all 3 shots and had 4 Widgeon to add to my bag. I'm still relatively new to the hobby and hope to do this again.

A pic with my stepson with his first duck, my dog, and myself from last season. The boy is super excited since next weekend is the youth opener.

Very nice. I would say you are even more lucky then I when it comes to duck hunting. You have a son, step or not, to enjoy it with. My two daughters have no intrest at all.

Yeah he is really into it, he gets more excited than I do. My 2 yr old son is into it too, he carted my duck calls off somewhere and I'm beginning to think he's claimed them for his own now.... I can't find them...

I would REALLY like to hear your music,do you have a website or anywhere that I could hear samples of it?

Don't have anything posted online but I'll see if I can find a way to post something up. I composed the recessional for my wedding, a string quartet.

Hunting and fishing has been a passion/hobby of mine since I was a kid. Bow season starts this Saturday, I can't wait!!
I harvested this deer the year before last and the other one the year before. Il have to search for the other photos that I have. Caught a once in a life time Large Mouth Bass about 10 years ago in Florida that was 15 lbs. 1 oz. and have several other 8 and 9 pounders. Did I mention bow season starts this Saturday??

No problem. If you use an apple computer and have the song on it I can tell you how to put it in mp3 format, if it is not already. Sounds nice! Can't wait to hear it!

The Christmas lights are awesome turbo21! We have a house in our area that does that and we go every year! Although I can't take a picture of my hobby, I love to read! :D Boring, I know. I love collecting and filling my bookshelf! I would love a full blown library in my house! If I ever get to that, I'll definitely post a pic! :D

Here is a link to an .mp3 stream of my wedding recessional that I composed. It's actually MIDI converted to .mp3 as I don't have a recording of it from my wedding. I titled it "Immer und Ewig," a corruption of the german phrase "auf immer und ewig," meaning "forever and always." Little has been done to the MIDI, as I did not include dynamic changes or humanize it at all. Hope you enjoy!

I've been collecting species of the genus Paphiopedilum and Phragmipedium for about 15 years now. They are ladyslipper orchids from S. America and Asia. Also have a lot of other oddball orchids and tropical plants, especially Tillandsia (air plants) but the Paphs and Phrags are the main focus.

I also dabble in killifish, dartfrogs, hosta, plecos and catfishing so my main hobby cycles a few times a year lol...if I could only clone myself and win the lottery I'd be set.
Some of the ones I've got stored on photobucket
