I started by replacing mine with chopping wood. 5 cords of wood later, and no more logs left, i'm now going to focus on coaching my oldest thru a successful start in Little Kickers soccer - the 5 yr olds are a blast. Oh, that and fishing. and getting ready for hunting season. and getting a couple more website deals so i can fund a new rifle. Shooting sports are a good time waster for me too. My 5 year old LOVES going to the range and shooting the .22, especially with reactive targets like steel plates or the tip up turkeys. He has alot of fun with grandpa's old ruger 10/22 carbine (his GREAT Papaw).

All i seem to be able to do when he's shooting is smile from ear to ear.

Now if only I could get a couple of these girls to talk to my wifey I better be careful though, she reads this forum and is a future WLS candidate.

I also enjoy the shooting sports. Lately though, I have taken up building and flying radio control planes. It's healthier than food but still an addiction. I met some great folks at the RC club. A great way to spend a relaxing day outside with friends.
