Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - Your Interests?
It's Saturday Night - time for more Genealogy Fun!!
Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to:
* Tell us about your "other" hobbies or interests outside of genealogy and family history research, writing, speaking, etc.
* Write a blog post of your own, respond with a comment to this post, or add a comment on the Facebook version of this post.
Here's mine:
Do I really have a life outside of Genealogy and family history research, blogging and speaking? Of course I do - I only do that 8 to 10 hours a day when the grandkids aren't here or we're not traveling.
My other interests include:
* Being with my two daughters and their families, including the four grandchildren (boys aged 6.4 and 3.9, girls aged 4.9 and 1.7). I'm not averse to making family history with all of them!
* Traveling - although we usually combine genealogy with sightseeing and visiting friends.
* Reading mystery novels - authors like James Patterson, John Sandford, John Grisham, Dean Koontz, J.A. Jance, Michael Connelly, Ridley Pearson, John Lescroart, Tom Clancy, etc. I usually read in the evening while watching baseball games or news shows.
* Keeping up with current events (including politics, science, religion, aerospace) via online forums and websites, cable news shows, print newspapers, etc.
* Being a devoted fan of the San Diego Padres (MLB baseball - we go to about 25 games a year) and San Diego Chargers (NFL football - we don't go).
* Eating and sleeping - Linda is an excellent cook and I really appreciate her culinary talents. I try to get 7 hours a night to stay sane, and often take a 20-30 minute power nap in the afternoon in my recliner with the TV on.
Pretty tame, isn't it? But, but, but - see, I have a life!
