We need a positive thread. So everything in this thread needs to be positive. Please add something positive in your life related to cards or non-related to cards.

I will start-pretty excited about my new Trek Farley fat bike. Sold my old one and this one has 4.5” tires. If it ever quits raining here in Iowa I can’t wait to go tear up some gravel roads!

Cool bike Eric. I hear you on the rain. It is the same way here and looks like more rain everyday for the next week.

My good is that I was offered 10X what i paid for a card. The other good was I mailed the guy I purchased it from a portion of my profit.

Greetings from Oregon. It is Spring Turkey season. My primary love and hobby, the outdoors.
Life’s too short to stress and worry about cardboard.

Default Running

I ran a 5k this morning in my old hometown. The run was in memory of a son of one of my classmates. His son was 21 years old and passed away 10 years ago because of heart problems. All of the money that was raised will go to scholarships for the local high school kids.

My time was 29:21, which is OK for a 68 year old geezer.

We're all lucky enough to enjoy and own some prewar cards.

Good thread. That Turkey is nuts. Eric, great to put a face to the name! My son and I climbed a small (east coast - Cotoctin) mountain last weekend. That same son was confirmed today and gets his learner’s permit Tuesday. Time flies....

Scary as f*ck to be driving along and have one of those monsters fly out of a tree across the road in front of you. Gotta be the heaviest flying bird.

My positive is simply the people I've met from this forum. Added two more in Pittsburgh this weekend and look forward to meeting more every time out. The negatives are unfortunate, but important, however I get a LOT more positive from the site and the hobby, thanks everyone.

Awesome thread. My third child (only son) graduated from Penn State this month. After twelve straight years of tuition courtesy of his sisters and him, wifey and I are free! Looking forward to a vacation (and bigger card budget)!

Ryan- hiking with the dudes is the best! I hiked 3 that were above 13k in Colorado with my son 3 summers ago. Awesome memories.

Bob- Fat biking is the best. This is my third fat bike. Currently at 4 bikes in the stable. That feels like the right number. Carbon road bike, full time trainer bike, this fat bike and an all carbon Trek Stache. Love me some biking

Thanks for all the positivity everyone!

My son graduated from USC in three years and, even better, he has an amazing job that he starts in July! Oh--and I have two kids. My daughter just blew me away with her SAT score so I won't have to use the "side door" for her either and pay half a million to get her in somewhere. They are way ahead of where I was at their age. And I live in Colorado so get to use its awesome hiking trails every day. Life is good.
