Recently my wife bought me a #6 Strohs light 1/24th Mark Martin nascar. Then she bought me a signed card from Mark Martin then she bought a picture frame to put it in. Tonight she handed me a Folgers #6 1/24th scale car and another box. In that box were 2 Ford Ln9000 car haulers and trailers. One a Folgers hauler and one a very early valvoline #6 hauler. She said she’s bought some of these from one guy. He just sent her the haulers and told her I should have them. My collection is growing. We have racks completely covering the man cave door that are covered with 1/64 th cars still in packages. I built a shelf unit for all the 1/24th scale cars. |

We’re going to build a building for my race cars and her hallmark Christmas ornaments. I also have an out of control blacksmith tool (especially hammers) collection. |

Ted she does treat me quite well. She’s been working a lot ever since Covid started. It’s been quite a stressful environment at her work. I’ve tried to help out extra around the house and did just finish her in closed back porch. She is very supportive of what I do. I try to do the same. |
