Most Pleasant Surprise of 2011

[murcerfan]

well, cardwise I've sold more cards than managed to buy...most buys were modest upgrades in my upside-down D card collection....I'll win that race to the bottom yet Leon.

but last winter I was able to ski some absolutly astonishing backcountry routes and mountains here in the high peaks of the Adirondacks, as we had the best conditions in years here from the beginning of february..it was day after day after day and were some of the best days of my life!

well, i bought some beater lowgrade cards I like too, a Purtell E90-3 and from my buddy Steve a nice D359 Bender that was too low, I felt bad.

I feel so blessed at the fortunes we all have and share and the great connections this hobby affords us.

buy now, worry later.

Thanks Joe, that's about the only grade of E107 HOF'ers I can afford!

Awesome! Would love to do that but these days I am more of a Cross Country Skier.

Managed to FINALLY pick up the fearsome foursome last 4 cards I needed to complete my 1911 Zeenut set- Fullerton, Pfyl, Heitmuller (both large and small poses) and Ryan SF. I had to join with another collector to buy a complete set to get them but was lucky to be able to sell all duplicates after upgrading some so it worked out well.
