    Hey errbody,

    We're back from Nfld. It was a fantastic trip full of family hangouts and sight seeing.

    Here's my fave pic that I took, showing off my mad photo skillz headbang.gif :

    Bro took this one:

    When I came back, I received another very generous gift from Theodosius and I want to show it off.

    I'll post individual pics of the coins in the next post.

    Big thanks to Theodosius for this awesome gift!!

    I just wanted to take a moment to express how amazing the people on this forum have been. This includes, but goes beyond, the amazing gifts I have received. You all have had an effect on me that can't necessarily be shown through an online forum.

    I'm happier, more confident, I can communicate better with people, the list goes on. This is because you guys have taken a chance on me. My brother feels the same way too.

    Thank you!

    After being the recipient of many generous gifts, I humbly request that you guys focus your generosity on others. I am eternally grateful for all that you have done and continue to do!! However, I can't be selfish about it.

    I don't know how quite to express this without someone reading this sensing that there is any lack of sincerity on my part. I mean this gratitude and request with complete sincerity, it's jut hard to fully say with only words. I hope that you can read through to it.

    I hate being sentimental and stuff, but there you have it. :rolleyes:

    Thanks everybody!!

    Erin

    Here are the coin pics. Bro and I are tasked with attributing all except one. I think the Greek ones we can figure out. But, the Roman ones might be a bit more of a challenge for us, which will be fun. :D

    Thanks everybody!

    Yes, green, we get a clear shot of the sun in Little Rapids. lol :p

    The flights to Nfld were good, but sucked on the way back. There must've been a thunderstorm over Montreal or something because it was pretty turbulent. I tried to grab onto my sister's arm for comfort, but she was trying to sleep and was having none of it. :stop:

    I'm really excited about attributing the coins. I found a magnifying glass at work that will help give us a closer look at the legends.

    My mind is constantly blown by the generosity shown in this forum. If only the rest of the world could be this way . . .
