AvvaRae Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 😎There was a recent Auction I attended and there was so many marbles it was nuts... But these are my scores... 👀Many came in lots so say you had a bag in mind you had to bid on the whole lot. I am hoping to spark some interest with my children and I hope they get into this as much as I am. 😬Seems the agenda these days is to push technology on children and I am more the board games, flash light tag, catch lightening bugs, make mud pies, start collecting something you love kinda mom. Idk about you all but I think life was much more enjoyable then. 🤫 🔍Anywho I didn't get anything "fancy" but man do I just love the thrill of old things!!! Makes you feel like you're apart of that decade or brings up memories of it. Thanks for peaking and sharing in my joy 😊 this whole bag of agates glows it was hard to capture but super bright green 🫣 I was so excited. Many other bags had uranium in them as well (like 1 or two) or Cadmium 🤗 I felt like such a kid!!!! I am so happy to have a community of people to share this excitement with. 🥰 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda Gail Posted August 1, 2023 Report Share Posted August 1, 2023 I agree life was more enjoyable back then. I remember a time were I went outside and played until mom told us kids to come in. A time were we still had rotary phone and floor model T.v. the 80's were a good time to grow up in. Saturday morning cartoons. Not these technology we have today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 80-90's I could not get my kids or their friends to garner the least interest in playing with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
