[QUOTE="jeankay, post: 372732, member: 12159"][b]Collections[/b] My first collectibles were anything miniature. Second, filling my scrapbook with newspaper cartoon strips of Snoopy. I tried a collection of stamps, but it got too expensive for a 10 year old. Metal horses I would win at the county fair while playing the horse race game at the carnival. Then nothing until I was able to afford it. Collecting rocks and making jewelry, and rock tumbling. (rock tumbling requires a bit of knowledge and the right slurry to get the job done best). After that, Batman and genealogy. (yea, I can't figure out how those go together either). I have about 30,000 people in my genealogy database that covers both sides of my family. My Batman collection got totally out of control. I used the spare bedroom to display all the items, from ceiling to floor , on every wall, and even the bed linen. It sure freaked out our guests. Mechanical music boxes with unusual tunes. Crystals of every shape I can find. There are about thirty different styles of crystals that I have hung in the top windows of our living room. When the sun comes up and during part of the day, all the of first floor rooms are filled with rainbows. There are a few others, but I won't bore you with all of it. Now, coins... The problem is, I have only myself to blame for it all...:D jeankay[/QUOTE]
