Growing old, gracefully. (but the "gracefully" part isn't working out too good!)

For 10 years, my hobby was guns. I spent that time buying guns, shooting guns, even got certified as a firearms instructor. I had a loose list in my head of the guns I wanted to own and expanded my collection into two big gun cabinets. About a year ago, I bought the last gun on my list. When I got it out to the parking lot of the gun shop, I realized I was now done. For several months I wondered what my next hobby would be.
Then, I bought a 17' jon boat last fall that needed a lot of work. It sat, ignored all winter but for the last couple of months I've been working on that in my free time. I removed everything from the hull and started with a coat of paint, new side console, did a partial rebuild on the outboard motor, made repairs to the trailer, rewired everything, added navigation lights, deck lights, fish finder, gps, radio, and a bunch of other stuff. I think I'll have it in the water next week for it's maiden voyage. I like to crab and fish but have always had a real small jon boat with a battery trolling motor before this one. I have a feeling that this is going to be my hobby for the next few years.
I also have two part time retail businesses with my wife. I think business can be a hobby if you really enjoy it. I do.
