Engine work
Here recently me and my father have been putting motors in stuff. I buy broke down vehicles sometimes if I have the money to buy it and the money to buy the parts then me and my dad put them together and resell or trade it. Recently I bought a truck that needed an engine so I bought the truck and engine for cheap and soon we are going to put it together. I also have a 1974 Chevy Nova we have been working on. I got a bigger engine than the one in it so we are pulling the motor and swapping it for a bigger one and selling the old engine. Or when one of our vehicles we drive break down we also fix them. We both enjoy working on vehicles and engines but it is a lot more enjoyable when everything cooperates and don't fight you. The hardest part is tracking all the wires and bolts down other then that its really easy
Riding
We both also enjoy riding dirt bikes, four wheelers, go carts, three wheelers and anything else with an engine. Riding is a lot of fun it is never the same experience you will almost always encounter different obstacles when riding which makes it very enjoyable. You never know if something is going to go wrong and frighten you and get your adrenaline pumping or if its going to be calm smooth ride. I like to have an exciting fast scary ride. Me and my dad usually go fast down back roads and ride to the area that we ride at. Sometimes we jump them and sometimes we stay on the ground.
Fishing
Sometimes we even go fishing. We don't fish as much as we work on vehicles and ride but we do fish often. We fish at a spot about 10 miles outside town. A lot of people go here because it is a part of the river and it is a pretty good spot for catfish. Just not too long ago I caught a catfish close to 10 pounds with my dad. The only downfall about it is we both always get soaked. I was helping my dad move a log over by our fishing poles for a spot and when we got over by our poles a fish had taken my pole in the water. We went out there the next day and caught my fishing pole because it was a new one and not cheap.
Boating
We also enjoy going boating together; it is a lot of fun. It is similar to riding but a lot different at the same time. It is similar because you never get the same experience it is always different. It is a good way to cool off on a hot summer day. The faster the boat the better but you don't need a super fast boat because when you're on the water you seem like you're going faster then you really are. We just have a little 12 foot john boat but sometimes we borrow a bigger one. Also when boating you can just hop off the boat and go for a swim. It is a really good time especially when there are other boats out making waves to hit.
Swimming
We also enjoy swimming quite a bit. We don't go swimming by ourselves that is more of a family thing but we all enjoy it. It is also a very good way to cool off on a hot summer day and is a lot of fun. You could always go swimming in the river like I mentioned earlier but sometime you like to go in clean water with the diving boards and slides. Swimming at a pool is also cheaper because to go boating you have to put gas in the boat and the pool you just pay a few dollars and swim all day in clean water.
