Last night was kind of surreal. In addition to watching and bidding on REA, my wife and I placed an offer on a house outside MSP as we're relocating for work. Though the house was on the market 2 days, we were informed that there would be multiple offers, so I used my baseball card strategy to throw in a "snipe" well above asking to act as a bit of a "top all." Learned late last night, well into extended bidding hours, that we got the house. So while a good deal of money was spent last night, I don't have the big card pick-ups to show for it.
I did manage to win these modest Cobbs. My favorite pose. I would normally avoid cards with marks on them, but I was drawn to the typed "right field." It reminds me of a modern art piece I can't quite place.
