Golf balls from vacation places or courses I have played/visited. Pebble Beach is the latest, however all I did was hit some around on the putting green. My family didn't want me to spend $600 and an entire day there while on vacation .

I've been doing that since my early teens. I now probably have 700-800 in total as my dad would tell all his golf buddies I likes logo balls and he would get all of them. I bet when I go back home this weekend he'll have 4 or 5 sitting there for me.

The only ones that get displayed are the top 50 that are most meaningful/memorable.

I also love trying new craft beers where-ever I go.

Bill

I collect Starting Lineups...so much so, that I started a grading company that grades Starting Lineup figures, much like AFA, but we only grade Starting Lineup figures. We will be launching the company officially in Feb. I have staff who I consult with who worked on the Starting Lineup line, sculpted the figures and painted the original SLU's.

For me, they are like a 3D baseball card and look great displayed in our custom acrylic cases and add value with a high grade.

I have every figure produced of some of my favorite players like Michael Jordan and Ken Griffey Jr. to name a few as well as many variants and error figures.

I have been hooked on them since 1988 and have been collecting on and off every since. As a kid, I was well known in the community for my room with hundreds of Starting Lineups on display.

It also helped that Kenner, the company who produced the figures was in my hometown growing up.

Hi Bill,

Glad you got to hit some on the putting green. All my wife let me do was walk around the club (extremely impressive!). In her defense, we were on the 17 mile drive and then headed down along Big Sur. For my money, that is one of the most beautiful spots in the US.

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
