Gather EC

An Elongated Coins Collection

Hey! It’s been a while.
I’ve been preoccupied with moving for the past few weeks. Now I’m finally at my new location, yet all my coins are still boxed up :( Jennifer got me a set of ECs on her vacation in Ithaca, but I won’t be able to scan them in until I find the box which they’re packed into.

Updated some information on EC cleaning and location mapping. Feel free to comment if I posted any misinformation.

Take a look at David’s Google map members location. I just got listed :D

Because I’m the only one manning (or womanning, if you would) this page, I make A LOT of mistakes. One of these mistakes is not knowing that Akismet blocks valid comments…
I’m thrilled whenever people leave comments. Consequently, I’m really upset when comments go unanswered due to my stupidity. This post is to answer Brown’s request on expanding the Coding, etc. post.
If you were asking about the Trade List coding, here is the source code.
If you were talking about the EC Information page (which I think you were), I wrote a few more paragraphs here.

I’d like to separate these pages out, but I’m having a hard time correcting the WordPress header… In the meanwhile, if you find some links missing, it’s because I’m messing around the page.

I was reading a finance article on countries with the highest salaries. The US is on there, along with a mixture of European countries. The figure that stood out was the number of holidays - you go down the list and everyone has 20+ number of things to celebrate for, then you come to the United States which has 11… What I’m trying to say is that since we only have half as many holidays, we should party twice as hard on these scares occasions.
I’m spending most of the weekend driving, from Maryland to Michigan then back again, but I hope to get a few penny presses as well.

Planned Trip #1 - Potawatomi Zoo
The Potawatomi Zoo in South Bend, IN has a new set of design that I’d like. The roadblock literally is with Notre Dame and its football schedule. No coin is worth that kind of traffic hassle.

Planned Trip #2 - Interstate 80/90 Travel Plazas
One of these days, I’ll get all the coins on this strip of highway. I’ve driven the interstate back and forth numerous times but can never remember which coins I own and which ones I’m still missing.
