As my friends can attest I like volunteering, attending Conventions and Faires of all sorts. Below will be a peak into my hobby world. Thanks for clicking and looking at the page.

Hess Trucks
My Father use to work at the RT 36 Hess in Toms River, New Jersey back in the '70s and '80s. I remember dad bringing me home the 82 version of the "First Hess Truck" and then the 84 and 85 ones during the holidays. I didn't get anymore, because we moved to Washington in 87, and it wasn't until 2020 when I decided to get that years Truck and then go back and collect the others at least from 1980 to current. I also have decided to collect the BP ones as well, as there is only 10 of them, in there series.
Sword Collecting
One of my Favourite hobbies is sword and medieval weapons collecting. This one is an expensive one of my hobbies, as swords are not cheap. It also goes along with my live steel fighting (sword fighting with real swords). It is also part of my Anglo-Celtic Heritage, as well as Being part of the Renaissance Faires and Highland Games.
Fountain Pens
As a writer you find that pen that works great, I have found that and started another hobby. Fountain Pens and Quills are the best and only way to write.
