What other Hobbies or Interests Do You Have?

Hello,
I was curious as to what other Hobbies or Interests do you have that also take up much of your time, energy and money or is Audio the only one for you?
Being a car enthusiast is definitely my first passion. Always reading about new cars and lusting after some classics.

For me, besides my interest in building a Audio System in the past few years, I am also a Car Enthusiast and Amateur Photographer (actually I hate using that term, more like a photo enthusiast because I consider myself a novice).
All 3 Hobbies have taken much of my time, energy and money. Sometimes I look back and think, wow, what have I done?
Could have saved all that money and time.
So I guess I should list my gear if I am talking about other hobbies:
Cars:

2016 Mustang GT 6 Speed (weekend car, a few modifications) and 2018 Subaru Forester XT (Daily Driver). Obviously both are performance oriented.

Camera Gear: Nikon D750 with Kit Lense, Nikon 50mm 1.8 Lense, Tamron 14-24MM 2.8G
Thnx

I play with toy trains (scale MTH and Lionel), old cars ('66 Corvette right now), some music (guitar, drums, bass, etc.--horrible on all of them), and dream of having a Hammond B3 and 2 147 Leslie's (that I can't play either).

Oh, well, there is always the stereo...

@ yaluaka  Love hams as well.  Was in NYC a few months ago and had a Berkshire ham sandwich at an outpost of Zabar's near the museum.

Looked into it and they are available from Heritage.  A bit expensive for me, but a unique flavor that stuck out immediately.  My former MIL used to keep a country ham hanging in her kitchen in NC.  We would cut off the moldy parts and enjoy it for breakfast when I visited...it was local to central NC, I believe, on the cure (late 1960's).

Also remember like yesterday eating at the Williamsburg Inn Sunday Buffet in the late 1950's, early 1960's and enjoying REAL Smithfield Ham there.  Never forget the taste of it, and have not been able to find anything the same since then...but I enjoy looking!

Cheers!
