Hello, I am a 66-year-old retired civil engineer and a proud grandpa of a beautiful baby girl. In my former life I have been an engineer in both the mining industry and the road building industry. Before I got old and chubby, I was a 2nd Degree Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do and operated several dojos around the local area. I love fishing, kayaking, sailing, swimming and basically just sitting and staring at the ocean for hours at a time. After 44 years of working, I decided to retire and for a while it was wonderful but then I started to get a little bit bored, so I delved into online auctions, yard sales and estate sales looking for hidden treasures. Once the piles got too large for my wife to tolerate, I (we) decided to look into starting an eBay store to pass these treasures on to other adventurers. Haven't got the store up and running yet but I have started posting some treasures for sale to test the waters. I especially love Norfolk & Western Railroad item in honor of my dad
