Where will you be buried? When I sold my first collection it was quite refreshing to have a bit of money again. I doubt I will ever go all-in like that again.

Default Crossroads...

While I collected a lot in my youth - much of that was in the late 80's and 90's - the overproduced era. Still have much of those cards - though I sold off just about anything of value (aside from key rookies), which I turned into vintage. I've been collecting vintage for about 10 years now. Love it. Love the game - and its history, so the two just went hand in hand. I always thought I could collect with my kid(s) or at least pass down the collection.

However...

Sometimes things just don't work out or go exactly as planned. The "kid" ships is starting to sail and at this point in time - the money would do me much better now - and start building towards the future. I'm not one of them "I'm leaving this hobby" guys. Still love it and perhaps will get back into it at another time. I have other hobbies in mind to fill the void.

I might pick up a few minor cards this winter - but it's time to let it all go this spring. Feel a bit excited for a new beginning, actually.

I know where Tahoma is.
I try to go to somewhere among that vastness a few times each summer. But I live close to Loowit , so more of my free time is spent there. And some time at Wy’east and Klickitat too.

I don’t wish anyone an early demise but will accept any cards mailed my way if any of you aren’t feeling well

Very nice Brian...

I used to live 12 miles north of Packwood...yeah, I typed that right. Then for another summer I lived a few miles north of Mystic Lake...I miss those summers and staring at Tahoma.
