You just couldn’t take the farmer out of him! Delwin loved to collect and fix up old tractors. He also had a loved for cars and music. But most important to Delwin was his love for his Savior!

National Hobby Month


January is National Hobby Month.

Every month throughout the year has a designation, more than just one usually. January happens to have many, including hobbies.

What are your hobbies?

I have many. Sometimes I have very little time to devote to my hobbies. One thing about a hobby, it is a great stress reliever. I think everyone needs an “out” once in a while.

Among my hobbies are reading. I love books on history. I collect books about President Kennedy. I also have read books about President Lincoln and Andrew Johnson.

I am a huge fan of Nicholas Sparks books and Debbie Macomber.

I enjoy music. Mostly country, but 80’s music is great!

I have crocheted many items over the years, but hadn’t done much of it the last couple of years. I crocheted three scarves in November and December. I am working on three more now. My next crocheting adventure is headbands. I have seen many of them that button in the back. I want to make some of those.

I enjoy writing, obviously. I try to tackle a new writing technique from time to time. I find it fascinating. I have always been a social person, and writing is a way to be just that.

We spend time in the summer camping and fishing. I also enjoy swimming in our pool.

I also love a long, relaxing walk.

There are many hobbies to choose from.

What are your hobbies?
