What are some of your other passions and interests beyond swimming?

Originally posted by Scansy Outdoors - especially fishing, hunting, skiing and gardening (vegetables and flowers) In the fall - coaching youth football - (this usually has a big impact on my "recreational" and swimming time) Reading - my favorite author is James Michener (It's a new addiction - I have read Chesapeake (twice) and Alaska and currently I'm working on Centennial) - I just wish I could read more than 20 pages at a time at night. It takes forever to finish his books at that pace! And when I have a bad day at work and need to vent some frustration on the way home I like loud, obnoxious, head banging music (currently have CD's by the following in my truck: Metal Church, Hanzel und Gretyl, Seraphim Shock, Metallica, Megadeth) I used to have time to read....still have about three books sitting on my desk waiting. I have read all of Michener's stuff a long time ago. I liked them. I like science fiction a lot too. Music- Aerosmith, good for a bad day at work!
