My short adventures into BMX riding. I have come to grips with the fact that I'm too old for BMX riding. There are older riders, yes, but I'm just not cut out for this.

**[[http://www.joeldare.com/blog/boat/|Boat Building]]**\\
My new blog about building a homemade boat on the cheap.

**[[Auto Mechanics]]**\\
Over the last few years I've done a little of my own mechanic work on my cars.  I'm actually starting to enjoy the work and consider it a hobby.

**[[http://www.joeldare.com/blog/|Something for No One]]**\\
This is an old blog. I used it, for a short time, to write small pieces of information about what's going on in my life.

**[[Keyboarding]]**\\
I recently started teaching myself to play the keyboard.  I'll record my music and store it here as a progress.

**[[Outdoors]]**\\
I enjoy the great outdoors.  Here is some information I've started to gather about fishing, hiking, and camping.

**[[Model Rockets]]**\\
I dabbled in model rockets for a while, including building my own tiny rocket motors.
