Challenge: Just Collectables Feb. 25 – 27, 2019
Feb 24, 2019 20:38:31 #
Since we are in the middle of winter, this challenge can be done inside if you wish. The challenge is about collections of anything. Whether it be of nic-nak’s, stamps, salt & pepper shakers, hats, baseballs, camera’s and even automobiles. Even if only one item collectible for sentimental reason only. Its value only needs to be within our hearts or soul. This past month have seen a lot posted in Photogirl17’s, Patography’s, Judy Juul’s, Haymaker’s, Katspangle’s, danersmiff’s challenges that would fall into this one.
Right now I will go with LEGO's that we have acquired.

I am an inveterate collector. I believe everybody collects something!
I wasn't prepared for this challenge, so these photos are mostly quick shots I took to mail to somebody, or to make a point. A few notes:
The running shoes in the photo have mostly been donated. But I have replaced them with even more (I work part-time in a running store, so this isn't as weird as it may seem).
There are 23 guitars in my collection. I don't have the space to hang/display them all, so this photo is a smartphone panorama of my "studio." The cases in the closet are not empty.
My father gave me my first pocket knife when I was in high school. It was given to him by then-vice president Hubert H. Humphrey. One day, a few years later, I reached into my pocket and discovered it was gone. I never found it. But I've been carrying one or the other every day (except now when I fly -- knives are a no-no to airline security).

Thanks Fred snapshots is always fine with me. It’s amazing those shoes stay put, a lot of guitars I have 2, like the pocket knives see a bunch of Swiss army style like those they are small easy to carry. Such a shame about the 1 knife. Thanks for sharing. Bob

This is about the closest I come to a collection - small stones from various parts of Scotland. The brown pebble was given to me by a tiny little girl at the Pennan Inn several years ago.
