Itching with Fleas

Or the Day before Baltimore

 

Although Bagofleas had a much longer drive, mine was filled with pitfalls, delays, and time in a dealership. An early start became a late finish all because of a tire blowout on Interstate 95. Arriving in Baltimore by six allowed us to meet up for dinner at seven. My friend who came with me tolerated the two of us enjoying a rapid fire conversation about anything comic related and we exchanged gifts before our meal was even ordered.

 

As for what I got him I'll let him tell you, if he desires, but what he got me is without measure. The comic itself is from his youth and he sent it to CGC for grading. I never knew his father, he passed away before I met Bagofleas , but if I could tell him one thing about his son is what a great job he did raising him.

 

Suffice to say meeting this man after all this time from the registry was like meeting my younger brother. I did purchase a book from him(journal to follow), but what he gave me is absolutely priceless. The copy of What If? passed over to me was purchased by his father and him both.

 

I'm writing this with the book next to me after violently trying to find my camera, which I am hoping I left at home. It's time for bet and I can't wait until tomorrow while counting my blessings. I know I might not be blessed with a lot of things, but suffice to say I am blessed with great friends...and a brother who I only just met.

 

Thanks for Reading

Dude that truly is awesome. I guess someone has some revising to do for his top ten never letting go. As for me it would be hard to let go of something with that kind of sentimental value to it which honestly makes it worth that much more. I truly hope you both have an amazing time at Baltimore and can gain plenty of Sig's with retained grades.

 

Like surfer said, can't wait to hear more about your trip... I guess from both of you.
