Re: Charmy's 2025 CENTRAL STATES (CSNS) Coin Show Report w/Lots of Pics!
Similar thing outside my bank but nest was behind a bush. I saw the goose for a moment before it flew in my face and knocked me over. Broke my wrist and drove myself to emergency room.

Re: Set build and completion – 1954 Topps!
I have fond memories of that set. Not hat. Was collecting it back then, but it was the first “old” set that I bought cards from. My Mom love going to flea markets and there was one where some had 54s that were in bad condition, but at a quarter a pice I didn’t care. -

I remember pulling that 1987 Topps Mark Mcgwire from the Oldsmar flea market like it was yesterday. Flipping through those wood grain beauties one by one and there it was the most brilliant green staring back at me. I was a winner that day. It wasn't always like that.
