What a great list, giasmom.
I like to do a craft (there's tons of fall ideas on pinterest). I like ones that involve natural items, nothing plastic.
I take extras from my garden to the Folsom Zoo or check out their wish list and try and bring a few items.
I try a new recipe.

My wife and I play a lot of Scrabble on the big board.
She is better than I am but I still try to give her a
good game and do beat her at times.
OH, YES. I also have around 22 bird feeders in my small
back yard. Keeping them full and counting the birds during
the annual bird count (this year) from November 10, 2012 to April 5, 2013 will be keeping me busy. I do the bird count for The Cornell Lab of Ornithology every year. It helps them with
migration patterns. My wife and I really enjoy this.

I go to free afternoon matinee at the Drive in movies or to the river to pick up the bottles with messages and painted rocks in them, that are floating by.
Sometimes, I've been known to go online to a forum.

Geocaching is great for "bored days". You don't even need a GPS anymore to do it as most smart phones have apps now.

Go wine tasting in Amador County. If you haven't been in some time, there are some great wineries just 40 mins away.
