Ooooh I like the idea of trying something new every year! While at Craig I played table tennis and bowling, which was a lot of fun. I also was the first quad to cast a fishing pole prototype one of the engineers was working on and that little ten minute period spent with it got me all fired up for fishing. I want to try fencing, archery, baseball, martial arts, on and on...I might not be able to play all of them for very long or very well but what I love is figuring out how to make it work with the function I have...to beat an obstacle. :) Plus it would be nice to find one sport I love and see how far I could take it.
