It’s great and refreshing to have someone with a great outlook on life doing things that they love to do being where they need to be and where they want to be. I know uploading can be kind of a hassle, sometimes always having a camera in your hand, and again the whole hidden doesn’t like everything you do but it’s great that we can sit here and watch the videos that we wanna watch and support you and that way.

Oh yes, collecting postcards can be very habit forming! I started my collection when I was re-doing some old scrapbooks and took the postcards out and started an album just with them. Then I went to Rennigers in Mt. Dora when they had the huge antique and collectibles shows in January-March and started collecting cards from places that meant something to me from places where I had lived to attractions I had gone to. I found a lot on Ebay also. I quit around 2008 but still collect postcards from places I go to. Have fun with it! I enjoy you sharing.

You would enjoy going there...I think the name is Market Place at Rivertown...There was a baseball glove that was probably from the 1940's ( not sure ) but it was funny looking and old. Next time you come down to Deland again, go there. You might wanna come with Micah.
