collectors

STUFF I think might become useful . Years ago when we had a town dump my DW refused to let me go alone and started riding shotgun . Some years back it changed to a transfer station and she feels a lot safer .:(

We collect pint glasses from the microbreweries we visit. We have more than 100 and I expect we will be adding a bunch more on our upcoming trip to Alaska.

Ski resort stickers for every resort we visit using the TC to camp.

Jumbo,
this was the first thing that jumped into my mind! One of the best movies of all time! (The Long Long Trailer for those of you youngsters out there that haven't seen it)

Mostly dead bugs on the front of the TC. We tried collecting regional beers but they never seem to make it home from the trip....

Well, the obvious, photographs. Specifically, photographs of the entry signs. This often includes all access points that have entry signs. Over the decades have seen many of these signs change and then change back to the original. The most interesting story was when the Grand Teton entrance sign (Elk Refuge side) was stolen and a year later found abandoned in a home, in California.

Also, Postcards that I mail from of 407 National Park Properties I have visited, as well as state parks and museums of note (Norman Rockwell as an example). I currently have 22 persons on my Post Card Mailing list.

O.K., I'll bite. Jeanie collects those refrigerator magnets from every national park we've been to. They live on the range hood and we are running out of space and slowly getting out of balance with so much weight up so high in the TC. They are kind of charming.
Eventually, they will live on one of our garage refrigerators when we have the entire collection, if that's even possible. Can't be too soon for me. Why do I feel like a curmudgeon? Because I can.

My wife's name is not Lucy, but she collects rocks. Mostly small rocks, but every now and then she will try to slip in a nice sized one.

We have traveled together to most of the lower 48 and she collects rocks from streams, rivers, and trails.

One of these days the earth will be out of balance due to her collection.

I collect memories, but as I age I found I can revisit areas and it's all new again!

We collected ceramic chickens. Then we collected refrigerator magnets. Then we collected maps of campgrounds. In the last year we somehow started collecting State Park t-shirts.

But my most favorite of all is collecting photos of places we've been.... all digital! Saves a LOT of space that way!
