Do you have a hobby? I think photography would be my first hobby. I love taking my camera out and grabbing pics from all our adventures. I do it for fun and most of my equipment is very simple and nothing too expensive. When I was young I was into “rocks” and collecting all kinds. I even had a “tumbler” which is a machine used for polishing stones. I had a nice collection, but over the years I slowly lost interest. I do collect some rocks today, but they are usually from places I travel too. I only grab one and somehow make them memorable. I have rocks from Ireland, Iceland, Jamaica, Bahamas, Mexico, Canada, etc. Would be cool to grab a rock from Antarctica. So what is YOUR hobby? We have a friend of ours who does paintings at home and they are fantastic! We are even blessed to have a couple in our home and we love them.
