    I'm always interested in people's hobbies and other activities when they're not driving. At Con-way it's a really diverse group of people and I've learned a lot from them.

    So what does everyone else here do away from work?

    I normally drive since my fiance and I are 5 hours apart right now. That will finally end this summer when we get married thank God. Other than that I like to waste money of cars, have 3 now 4 when we get married and the two I drive get about 15 mpg, golf, used to be a 6 handicap which still shows once in awhile, and I'm into making good BBQ. Looking at a Weber ranch kettle now that I can also use as a smoker..

    What are your hobbies?

    My free time is spent working on my 1972 Classic ford bronco. This is my 2nd one, first one was destroyed when my daily driver caught fire in the garage.

    I do everything I can't do when I'm on the road; exercise, eat good food, go to museums and concerts, drink, and, most importantly, don't drive. In the winter I go to Costa Rica.

    Motorcycles, Klr 650, st1100, sidecar rig. Gardening, sounds lame but i enjoy the serenity of it. I only grow vegitables, no flowers. Love coming home and going out to the garden and picking fresh vegitables to cook with something on the grill.
