To hot outside for any pic's from me today, by the time the sun's just right I might as well bring some egg's to fry with me.

This is my lone ranger, a repro. but still a mib box. Have a few game boxes have to dig a little, a board and the bag of mib's that go w/, Sad remnant's.

Thank you Steph, for the compliment's on both end's, and for being so quick to help out.

I caught this sturgeon in the mouth of the Columbia river on the Oregon side in an area called tongue point, ( a job corp's youth location ) known for it's strong current and deep water, some holes exceed 100 feet. This fish was caught by me in 35 feet of water on fresh anchovy and a 10, o hook. measured 8.5 feet , we caught several that day bigger and smaller but all oversize, there's a 48 to 52 inch size slot for keeper's and that's it This was the year before they closed the estuary ( this area) for good.I feel very lucky to have gotten in on some of the last of what I had done all my life. ( Sorry for the fuzzy pic. folk's my friend Phil took it w/ my camera ) I have other picture's of me and Phil w/ legal size fish before the slot limit I will be posting intermediately just to break the "marnotiny "

Good show, every one a winner and an exceptional tree to boot, nice score Bruce !! 👍

Here's a real one, dust like av. throughout the mib, heavier around the blue swirl's, one asmade dimple 7:00 first pic, that's it. I got to check one more off the old Pelt most wanted list. A relative of the Silver Surfer & Chuck G's dark universe.

A-greed". google, net annual income for the supers of Goodwill "industries" it's a real eye opener. The word " industries " should set one's mind to thinking.

Wake up. if I have to be up every one does !!

I play w/ it all the time it still keep's score and is fully functional, complete w/ a push bar to return your marble. I'm dreading the day the ancient wooden spring loaded marble launching knob bite's the big one, The game is all orig. even the screen to keep the marble in check was on it when I bought it. More than paid for itself, many time's over.

Talk about deja vu, i just posted about giving away a bunch metallic rainbow's because they used to be somewhat common. As I said in the other post, I don't throw away anything mint anymore ( except foreign cat eye's ) marble's that where everyday in any thrift or antique store are now like unicorn's. Replaced w/ jar's of fish tank or crackle marble's.Hang in there Scott, I might complain a bit but I keep diggin, the joy after all is in the chase !! Why there i go now

I myself learned the hard way not to throw away anything mint, like when I gave away a couple jar's of metallic streaked pelt rainbow's, there's stuff selling now that I used to throw in the dumpster, vintage or antique marble's in any type of good condition are getting harder and harder to find, for me at least. I used to walk into any thrift store or antique store and one of the first thing's I seen was a few jar's of mib's. Ahh the good old day's

Drat's foiled again Batman, I showed at 8:00 this morning as per agreed upon with all my marble inspection paraphernalia and some fine example's to show them, and met up w/ the dreaded excuse squad right out of the gate. Good morning.

It's the dreaded marble counting partner in action again.

Remember I did say " kinda "

Deeeliciouse !!!!!!

Very nice, not many people know just how old Vacor is. I believe they started around 1934 or 35, I always had soft spot for their hand made atmosphere marble's.

Let er rip then !!

A rare bird ?

Had a feeling I wasn't in the right spot.

Well I packed up a few cases of nice marble's for the estate sale people to look at today, I was told to be there this morning @ 8:00 sharp before everyone else and the heat. As per usual they where to tired last night to gather up their marble's etc. etc. etc. I don't mind a valid excuse, but when I hear multiple's, well you know the rest. This being the main reason I usually charge for appraisal's. Getting up early, packing up some mib's, the drive there and back for ?? Every once in a while it pay's off, but the once in a while's are really getting far apart. The first thing you hear is, well my "" "" "" has some ( here it come's ) cat's eyes. Oh boy here we go again. Sure wish the Japanese wouldn't have made a kagillion of them. Blah blah blah , Ok I'm done whining. Glad to get that out of my system. Not lately, Chad G.

It was 90 below w/ the wind chill,( no idea what the static temp. was ) and the base being right next to the lake all way's had a terrible breeze going, all I remember is it was the worst winter in over 100 yrs. ( 1979-80 or so ) and a few of my friend's got wrote up for frost bite they received walking 2 block's to medical w/o a face and hand covering's, they called it willful destruction of govt. property since all where warned to cover their face's and hand's completely. I remember Wisconsin being real close, the drinking age there was 18 and in Ill. it was 21 so kid's being kid's you know where we all went. Chad G.

Picture from Ottawa ?? ( at least I got it in the right place this time, think I need a little nap !! ) Chad G.

Oops sorry Chuck I was addressing Bill.

Thank's for gettin back at me, that's one of the 5 pelt's on my list. Only seen 2. Living about as far away from marble country as you can get doesn't make it any easier, glad you shared, Thank's again Chuck" excellent mib's " One of the reason's I love Peltier, the marble's they made are absolutely beautiful, Nothin like em.

A few more med. size. The only and biggest solid core I have, wait I do have a few smaller one's, I think it's bed time.
