I hope you all had a good Thanksgiving yesterday. We had 14 people over at our house. I'm sitting in the parking lot of the Empire Mall in Sioux Falls as I write this. It's been a long day of shopping.
So first an update on the bat situation. I wasn't happy with the $1300 quote the local expert gave me. There are two other places in town that claim to remove bats, so I called them on Wednesday. The first guy gave me a quote over the phone of $900. Better, but still way more than I was expecting. So I called the next one and got a quote of $550. Even better. I wish there were more local people to call because at that rate it was going to be free after two more calls. Mr. 550 is coming to take care of it next week. Then I can move my cards back into their closet. I'm trying to think of a more organized way to put them in this time. Any ideas???
Here are some 1955 Bowman Red Sox I picked up recently.
Good luck with your attic - $550 sounds reasonable, I guess? Sure is better than $1300. I used to have my collection in an attic at my childhood home, but I never had a bat problem. A few bees snuck through now and then, though.
ReplyDeleteNice cards here..'55 Bowman is a classic. I have a few singles (and a custom-made card using that design) but the only Red Sox I have is Sam Mele.
