When our work day is over, we're usually too pooped and brain dead to do much else. We play with the dogs, get a camp fire going, empty the tanks, fix supper and then it's time for bed to start all over again.

No crafting here. At home I have a wood shop in our smaller garage. I've spent 60 (plus) years remodeling houses, restoring houses, fixing church parsonages, repairing roof's on churches, remodeling mobile homes, and building a myriad of craft wood items (I love my scroll saw). But I'm now just burned out from doing all of that. I suppose tackling an old house and the new house at the same time was a bit much about 12 years ago, and I just literally burned out of wanting to do anything except vegetate now.

So, my hobby now is simply that .... vegetating around the camp fire and reading camping forums. But I still have my employment that occupies most of my time. If that's a "hobby", then, i suppose that's what my hobby is then.

We travel a lot now. Haven't been back at the house very much this year. Started out January 1 and came home for 2 weeks end of February and hit the road again in March. Did another couple weeks at home and by middle April we were on the road again. Did a week at home the first week in May and here we are again ... who knows when we'll get back home this time!
It’s awesome that you can work and be on the road. It sounds like you have done some amazing works. Your new hobby is well deserved. My husband makes furniture, cabinets, and other things. Sometimes you just need a break. I know it’s something he misses, when we are on the road.
Safe travels.
