OK... What is it then?


Latin ("salsa") dancing.

Yeah! I forgot about that one. :-(

Tone & I attended Salsa lessons last fall, now we're back to two hours
of ballroom dancing every wednesday.

(Waltz, Quickstep, Rhumba and Cha-cha are the most fun, while Slowfox is
_hard_)

In no particular order..

Food and drink with friends - always!
Jazz guitar - started about the same time I started skiing ~1972
Computer software architecture - work and play
Whitewater kayaking - at my cowards pace
Reading - lately biography and history but anything from classic
literature to science fiction to trashy novels is fine by me.
Movies - turn off brain, ingest, repeat as needed
My old house - house turned 100 two years ago
Talking politics/society - Gene G. had me in the rare position of a
centrist after the Birkie this year.
Collecting art - been at it regionally since before I could pronounce Klee
Cuban cigars - good thing I can't get them here

Punk karaoke? Competitive punk karaoke? Sound fun!
FWW
Rock climbing and general mountaineering
t***marking
fell running ( very slowly0
canoeing and kayaking (canoeing has a similar retro feel to nordic
backcountry)
sailing
reading
beer seems to come into a lot of lists
I'm an Arthur Ransome enthusiast

Outdoor sports is a small-world family scene to an extent, so I
appreciate knowing these things. To me there's more to skiing than
skiing.


I scuba dive. Love to go to Biscayne NP and Coral Reef State Park
(Florida) to swim among the fish. Nothing beat seeing SHARKs to
stimulate my senses.

Forgot to mention snowshoeing, jazz, opera (one man's boring is another
man's passion).

Part II. I must admit that I saw sharks only once. Scared the hell out
of me. I learned my lesson not to go into deep water again.
