We were working at our new house in the country and I was moving some brush when mom yelled at me over the sound of dad's trencher that she had found some stamps. When I went to look I saw they were all over the floor and on the desk. Later, when I counted them, I counted 204 stamps! There were some from the Philippines, England, Germany, Netherlands, Japan and Korea. As a stamp collector, this was a very exciting moment. I said to mom, "Tell me this isn't a dream." Only a few of them were ones I already had.
