Nantucketdink Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 OK, it looks like AAM is down for the count and I need a new primary residence. Hi! My name is Josh Dinklage. I am a 45 year old male who grew up with the nickname "Dink." I live on Nantucket Island in Massachusetts and you can call me Nantucketdink. I live with my girlfriend/fiancé Tracy and our 6 year old daughter Dory...and our 2 year old yellow lab dog Fisher. I have only been collecting marbles for about 4 years, but I have been doing it intensely. I am a passionate JABO, Sammy's Mountain Marbles, and Dave's Appalachian Swirls collector. When I say passionate, what I really mean is that I am obsessed, addicted, highly motivated, and driven. My collecting goal is to try to get an example of every different marble made by these companies. I also collect Vacors with my daughter and have modest collections of Champions, Vitros, Ravenswoods, Cairos, Heatons, Jacksons, MKs, and other machine mades. I really like Dave McCullough's marbles more than anybody else's if that wasn't clear enough already. Marbles tell a story and I love discovering new and interesting adventures that I find in the marbles. I also love fishing and have recently rediscovered the fun of building stuff with Legos with my kid. I enjoy the hobby much more by sharing it with others and the internet is my best resource for this at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disco005 Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Hi Nantucketdink - glad you are here I collect Akro, but have only collected for about ten years, always learning, always wanting more. I also enjoy just sharing what I have, and what I find. I consider you a serious Jabo guy, and thank you for that, I know very little about them so far. -Jess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
