used to love to SCUBA dive when I lived in Kona Hawaii but am in Texas now until I retire. Hope to pick it back up when I move back to Kona!

I also spend alot of weekends playing with RC Cars and Trucks. In the spring and fall I more active on the weekends running these other toys.

I love to take these to a RC onroad or offroad track and run with whoever is also playing that day



These are just a few of them.
Looks like an HPI savage, tmaxx or revo 3.3, nitro 4tec, a few rc10gt's, a tc3, and a couple of jr xr3 radios. Love the hobby! I am also in to the model railroads, snow skiing, and atv's. I guess corvette owners have lots of simularities.

I do garden railroading and recently won Garden Railway Magazine's contest for garden railways that primarily run diesel power. We will grace the cover and be featured in the December 2013, 30th Anniversary issue.

Watch the trains run themselves automatically via my own design system:

Nice collection! Wife is the Coca-Cola nut, she has tons of stuff, including a few Glascock coolers. We use her Vendo 63 as a beer cooler.
I have a few gas pumps... including a Bennett "clock face", a 10 gallon visible, and a 1915 Wayne curbside.

Cool railroad stuff!!!
Here's another shot of my downtown Hwy 10 East (Clark St) Stevens Point, WI.
You can see the cross bucks off in the distance a bit.

Ahh.. another coin-op guy!

I started collecting coin-op games back in the 90's .. specifically pinball machines, jukeboxes etc. Bought 1 game.. that morphed into 2. then came the 3rd... the 4th... the 5th... When we hit 14 games, ran out of room. Now working on the Corvette Hobby. Have 1 so far.

Holy incredible train setups Batman! I would have lost my mind if I'd seen them as a kid. Children don't have the motor skills or experience to build something like your miniature railroads. It takes adults that are still kids at heart to do it. I count myself among you. I don't have the same hobby but I restore John Deere garden tractors and build custom golf carts. If that isn't a grown man playing with toys I don't know what is.
