We collect Disney pins and have over 300 on a vest. I can't wear it anymore as it is tooooo heavy. We also collect Tom Clark Gnomes, Spoons and Thomas Kincade paintings.

Model trains (mainly narrow gauge logging).

I re-enact the Revolutionary War and WWII and collect all kinds of stuff to do that.

I'm making a 65 mini Cooper S into a rally car.

It goes without saying, I am into TDs and thus collect a ton of camping stuff.

Power tools!

Books!

Cookbooks, over 100 right now, some coins and shoes. Oh wait...shoes are just a necessity, not a collection (at least that's what I tell the hubby).

I collect 1/64 scale diecast trucks, have about 110 or so and N scale steam era railroad stuff, mainly engines. I have a small 5' by 12' layout just to "display" them on. I also have a collection of EDAVILLE RAILROAD items, which is a privatly owned narrow gauge steam railroad that was used for cranberry bog work and personal enjoyment up in carver Ma. I won't bore you with the whole backstory but it's quite an interesting little RR that's still used today at Christmas for lighted rides through the woods and bogs. As well as my newest venture, Tiny Trailers of which I have 2, a 1977 14.5' sunline and a 1969 shasta compact and about 3/4 of the parts for a woody teardrop that I WILL finish.........someday.

Leo (Frosteez) and I collect snowmen... or women! ... cuz we are the Frost's! Our Christmas tree is mostly decorated with snowmen...I pick up a new one from wherever we visit. And some of them, like our cookie jar are left out all year round.
