I've rediscovered collecting. After about a thirty year hiatus, I've rediscovered my interest. I came across my childhood collecting during a move recently and started to focus on what really interested me in the first place- early US stamps.
While not much had changed...a lot has! It's great to see forums where I can research and share my collection and experiences.
Thank you all for allowing me to join. I hope to learn much and really expand my collection. Hopefully my kids will take an interest in it too, as they're going to inherit it!
