    • Gold Top Dog
    Man, you leave for a while there are tons on new things on here to read!!!  #1 Homework procrastination site I've ever found!!!
     
    Hobbies:  Scrapbooking, love it so much I started selling the product to get a discount, but don't get to do it often enough, helping to rebuild my cars with my dad, then taking the 4x4's up on the trails, beer and I guess since I can't seem to get my tushie out of school I should count that as a hobby too....but reading and my dogs count as huge hobbies too...
     
    Collections:  Pictures from places I've been, antiques and jewelery (but that last one is unfortunately not as big as I want it to be)  [:D]

    I love to read...Summer is boating, water skiing, hiking.  Winter is skiing, snowmobile riding and snow shoeing on the lake with the dogs.  Don't think I collect any thing really.  Maybe books and earrings.

    I was thinking exactly that as I was reading, then it was here!
     
     
    Hobbies:  sleeping, fishing, swimming, riding horses, playing poker, playing pool, crossword puzzles, the occasional jewelry making project, arts and crafts of any kind.  Im also a champion beer drinker[:)]. lol.
     
    Collections:  hmm, after much thinking, I dont think I collect anything....  Ah wait, my collection of doggie stuffies is always growing, but Bailey manages it for me![:D]  (I used to collect those pretty glass figurines but found them too much of a pain to display and keep clean)

    Hobbies:
    I am an avid reader covering many different genres. It#%92s quite normal for me to have multiple books going at a time.
    Not a big TV watcher I much prefer listening to music.
     
    I love cooking and creating meals. A Mediterranean style cuisine is my favourite, but there#%92s little I do not like to try and cook. ( except baking, that#%92s not my forte.) I am going on a cooking trip in the Ardennes region, where we work along side chefs and learn the local cuisine in September. Can#%92t wait!!! I read cook books cover to cover much like reading a novel.
    I also enjoy entertaining and sharing our meals .
     
    I love all things outdoorsy and nature related. My favourite is to go hiking, but I also take pleasure in many other recreational activities, canoeing, boating, swimming, snorkelling ( I use to scuba dive but now I much prefer snorkelling) in the winter I like cross country skiing.
     
    I am passionate about traveling.
     
    I guess you could say learning French is a hobby. It#%92s an extremely long journey, with many many mistakes along the way. But, when all is said and done, I hope to emerge bilingual.
     
    I am a wannabe gardener with the grandest of intentions, but I always end up failing miserably! I like the idea of the garden, I tend to fall short when it comes to the upkeep.
     
    And of course training my Chinook. We are very involved in Obedience and I would like to move on to Agility in the future.

    Hobbies: Sleeping, reading when I can, cooking,and anything about dogs. Also forgot to mention talking about my pets.

    collections: Wolf statues, GSD Statues, a few husky stuff, dog toys for Blue , books, and dog hair

    Blue doesn't help with my collection of dog toys since it takes forever for him to wear anything out. So yeah his toys are starting to over flow.
