Your so Welcome! I actually watched it with Patty's son, he was over yesterday for some of my "famous" chili 😊 Enjoyed it thoroughly...I had to smile, because each time you mentioned "there's only so many of this item known to be out there" he would look at me and say "And Ron's got one" His favorite part was the insulators and the story behind them. Loved it. I got him started with marble collecting last year 👍....once again, tip of the hat too yet another wonderful product!

Vintage Alley Dishware and Collectibles...once again, nice work Stephen and Ron! 👍

Love it Ric....purple power! 😊

Last one for the day, a really cool electric blue 😊

You are a credit too the marble community...a big "THANKS" for playing a part in helping us newer collectors along 😊

Just came across this one...just squeaks in at 0.50

Reminds me of the miniature roses that were growing here on my property when I bought the place back in 01'....sadly they fizzled and died off. I tried saving the last one, transplanted and babied it but it failed too. I miss them!

Thanks, Ric....I've got a good few handfuls too sort and connect too manufacturers, takes me a while with what little time I have here and there, I'll get there eventually 😊

Bigger one, 0.73...

Best Wishes on your day and may there be many more too come! 🎉🎂🎉

A few more, a couple weeks before Christmas morning....Baby Girl always gets involved with gift wrapping. She loves tearing around in the paper when it gets rolled out! Another favorite pastime of hers is being inside a paper grocery bag. She goes crazy playing inside of it then when she's done, she comes out and crushes it 😂....Whiskers, all he cares about is the stringy ribbons, he tries to chew them and sometimes eat them! Every night, we have adjust all the gifts so he doesn't get to the ribbon. He never tries to do it in front of us, but you can tell his intentions! And Uno, she likes dressing down for holidays. Her thing, she thinks she's the cat's boss. She breaks up any kerfuffle that might take place. Even during the summer, we occasionally let Whiskers and Baby Girl out on the back deck. If they step off into the grass, the ever watchful Yard Boss herds them back if they get more than a few feet 😂....sorry I kinda sorta "pirated" your thread, just really dig the pet stories 😊

They look really good! They might improve even more with being in each other's company, then again it might stay as is, with Bear maintaining her "limited" tolerance. You might recall my story about Gabriel and Brittney. I aquired Gabriel and her brother Dominique as kittens in 96', then slowly introduced Brittney as a kitten in 01'. Dominique wanted to kill her, but they became best friends in a few months. Gabriel on the other hand couldn't stand her. Never fought, per say, but stayed apart most of the time. It was a rare occasion to have them within a foot of each other. Gabriel was way bigger (16 pounds), but I think she feared Brittney's quickness (a petite 7 pounds her whole life). Quite comical, because Brittney seemed to know this and would occasionally screw with her head and tease her when playtime rolled around. Charge out of nowhere and do that hysterical sideways walk with her back arched then run away, or sneak up behind her and touch her butt just too make her hiss. Anyway, cat's are a blast! Here are a few pics from the past month of our 2 weirdos....Whiskers guarding his marbles like a dragon over it's treasure trove....a rare mother/son moment napping together (Baby Girl usually prefers her own space also), the abduction of the Christmas tree (took all day to get the tree up because they took turns after that claiming the box!) 😊

An absolute fantastic community here, Amber. I've been here almost a year and love it. A true second family for sure! 😊

Well done, obviously a really great find 👍

(The crowd starts chanting) "schmoozer! schmoozer! schmoozer!

If this idea is ok, someone else can initiate it as I'm still a novice per say when it comes to ID and wouldn't want to start a good thread with the wrong mib 🤪😂

How about "CAC's, 8 Years of Excellence"? It could be a daily thread like the ones "Show us Your Master Mibs" and "Vitro Lovers Look Here"....just a thought for the thread title and scheme 😊

Salt and Pepper shaker standing there? I have a set 😊

Really like those shooters, Tommy, looking forward to finding my first ones in the wild with beauty like that 👍

Decided to go with all toe busters for Wednesday, that's the only big one I have (I think?)
