The last time I went spelunking was 50 years ago in Becky Thatchers cave in Sam Clemen's Hannibal MO. We got lost and our flashlight batteries gave out. When we finally saw a little daylight we found that recent rains had half filled the narrow tunnel to the outside. Crawling caustrophobically with my mouth just above the water scared the shit out of me. No more spelunking, thanks. Good luck to you.

I was an art dealer but with the way things are right now and museums literally liquidating collateral I ended up storing most of it - and I 'collect' and admire alot of the unsold works collecting dust
I had a Dali that I sold recently for near nothing
I also used to play music for years - now I pretty much just sit back, listen and enjoy the sounds on the siri speaker.
Pipes and Liquor are the quintessential pastime that give and expect nothing back in return but your health

Even when I think about that experience my palms sweat!

Dali made too much.
I'm an avid reader and I write novels. I was also a Civil War reenactor for 16 years but after I got hurt and had to retire from the FD, my physical condition no longer permitted me to march around the woods in ill fitting brogans.
My hobbies and interests include sword 
fighting / living history / re-enactment, art and craft work, during the shutdowns I made myself a medieval linen shirt and started baking, need to cut down on the clay pipe smoking and drinking ale!

Hunting, Fishing, Art, Reading, Golf, Amateur Woodworking, Cooking, Craft Beer and Whiskey, Going to the cabin, Pipes and Tobacco.
And watching hockey if that counts
He answered for me, so I suppose there’s no need to contribute.
My interest in clay pipes stems from seeing re-enactors smoking them.
When I bought my first clay pipe I thought there were only 4 different pipe tobaccos; namely Condor, Special Virginia, St. Bruno and Clan. I've tried all these in my clay pipes...
