Great thread! Diverse crowd, but with certain themes recurring! My love of music and audio equipment comes from my parents, who always had a stereo system, and lots of LPs spinning.
As for me... I’ve been lifting weights for 41 years straight, and have been competing in bench press competitions since I was 31 (I’m 54 now). I have my own home gym where I mostly powerlift, and my sons, and my grandkids, join me whenever they’re over.
Speaking of grandkids, is being a grandfather a hobby? If so, that’s my number one! I also love grilling all year on my Weber kettles. Big family, so plenty of grill time all summer by the pool.
I have a 2015 competition orange mustang GT premium with the “50 Years” package. I’ve had a thing for mustangs since I was six! I’m not a mechanic, but I can detail like crazy!
I also keep aquariums. Big oddball fish interest me. My favorite is my silver arowana. Close second is my datnoid. We’re getting a 300 gallon tank for them this year.
My wife is very patient with my audio hobby, so I’m sure to remember to ask her what she feels like hearing each night. We have a main system, a bedroom system, a family room system, and a vintage system in my weight room! As well as a system in the shed which plays outdoor speakers aimed at the pool area. There’s almost always music playing around the house. And I make sure it sounds good!
Keep it coming!!
