I love old license plates. There are many affordable ones with interesting designs, as well as big fish like the old leather ones. The summer before third grade I asked my Grandpa if, when he was gone, i could have his collection of them. He laughed and said yes, but i wouldn't have to worry about that for a long time. He was killed crossing the street a few weeks later. I also got his postage stamps, and his Whitman albums (empty when i got them). I also found the patent for his invention 13 years after his death salvaging books from the shelves before we razed the house. Everyone had actively searched for that thing too haha
Each year in the fall, we take a midnight tour of Long Island Sound & hunt stripers. This one night we caught a couple record-fish. I'm one of the guys in the photo.
