Members enthusiastically shared their hobbies past and present in response to a question about whether hobbies change over time, and the variety was wonderfully wide-ranging. Several members described childhood favorites like collecting stickers, drawing, and writing poetry that either grew into lifelong passions or gave way to new interests like assembling Book Nooks, painting watercolors, photography, and even feeding a backyard hummingbird colony. A recurring theme was the joy of creative expression and connecting with nature, with many members juggling multiple hobbies and finding that trying new things, like returning to gardening or picking up painting again, keeps life fulfilling.
