What Do You Do For Fun?

A. Spectre · 05-21-2020, 06:29 AM

Indeed, since I reside in the 'Windy City' everything is fun, fun, and more fun.

Ravinia Festival is the oldest outdoor festival in the US, we are season ticket holders and boy oh boy most of the concerts are amazing! We usually sit in the grassy section and bring a picnic basket full of wine, cheese and an assortment of hors d'oeuvres. We've seen Blondie, Melissa Etheridge, Poi Dog Pondering, Sarah Mclachlan etc.... BUT, due to covid-19, no shows the rest of this year.

With time on our hands, my bride and I are planting a herb garden, the deer, rabbits are loving it! lol We are relocating the dozens of fern that is growing wild on one side of the property as to make things a bit more symmetrical.

We are both looking forward to going back to work and feeling useful outside of our home again, this is the longest time we've been not working since we were young. But our time together has been an experience that would have never happen sans lock down. You REALLY get to know someone deeply when you're together 24/7. I just can't get enough of her.

I've been teaching my grandson how to use different types of knives in the kitchen ~ when I can get his attention so he will concentrate about what I am saying ~ it's too important as well as dangerous not to have his attention ~ he does make awesome scrambled eggs now lol

Hiking, baking, yoga, gardening, reading, writing, spending time with friends. Once the pandemic is over, I want to get my yoga teaching certification and learn to play an instrument.

Motorcycles are my fun. Riding them, talking about them, looking at them... Sadly, we're not riding much here in NYC right now. I could ride for pleasure now that the crisis has subsided a bit, but it felt too weird to take a pleasure ride with everything locked down as it has been. I helped organize like minded riders to deliver desperately needed PPE to medical professionals, and I have been riding out to deliver PPE, but I'm just not riding for pleasure very much right now. That should start changing soon.

The super-duper, turbo-charged motorcycle fun is at the track. I can't even describe the adrenaline high. It's a carnival and a rollercoaster wedded to a giggle-fest tied up with a HELL-YEAH bow. Sadly, track days are also cancelled for at least the first half of the season. It's likely the entire season will be cancelled. Sigh.

Our motorcycle club meetings will be held via Zoom for the foreseeable future, too. So we talk about motorcycles and riding via a flickering video feed. It's better than not meeting at all, I suppose. And I do enjoy doing political work around motorcycle issues.

My other fun is naked gardening. I enjoy gardening while not naked, but naked gardening is far more fun. I can still do that. My garden is quite verdant at the moment. So there's that.

Now: Gardening, reading, riding my bike, hanging out with my daughter, time home with my Daddy.

Before: all of that but also, road trips, slumber parties with my girlfriends, concerts, dinners out, live theatre, movies...
