with everything you mention. Sure it's nice that silver melt went up but for those like us that collect / hoard it is rough. We almost have to be picky and certainly can't just say "sure I'll take them all" when someone might make an offer for a hand full of even better what evers.

I have my collection and have no plans to sell it. My sons will get to figure that out hopefully in many years down the road.

Not sure if I'll make the January tournament at this point either. It is a lot of fun but the costs sure doesn't weigh out with what these days I can bring home. Cheaper I guess to be a buyer of the couple silvers and be done. Though missing all the eye to eye fun. Now if I new you both and Jim were to be there it sure would make my coming a more positive thought

Keep enjoying no matter,
