Torren' Up Cards recently posted a new Blog Bat Around where he asks us to talk about stuff we've done in the hobby that makes us happy.
- Built an original Allen & Ginter set from 1889. I'm also within seven cards of having two more original 1800s Allen & Ginter sets completed!
- Collected the entire Framed Relic set from 2020 Allen & Ginter
- Kept my blog Nachos Grande going since June 17, 2008. (9,396 posts and counting over the span of 6,690 days). That's more than a post a day for nearly two decades!
- My collection was featured in a magazine celebrating Barry Larkin's Hall of Fame induction. I also expect to be featured in another magazine article coming out in a month or so; more information about that when the magazine releases!
- Built the complete run of Topps Allen & Ginter base sets from 2007 through 2025, and now I'm working on the 2026 edition.
- I have organized and run my End-of-Year Blog Awards for the past five years. I am proud of the community engagement that the awards offer, even if blogging isn't nearly as popular now as it used to be.
- Started my own baseball card group break Discord.
- I've been an active trader on the blog (and later, on TCDB) for 17 years (!)
- Perhaps best of all, I've made countless friends via trading and blogging. Some of whom I've even met in person, but even for those that I haven't met, I consider a lot of bloggers as friends!
