Trade with 'O' No not another Orioles Blog

Another of the boxes of cards that arrived recently. This time from a new trader Ryan from 'O' Not another Orioles Blog. 'O' it was brilliant (see what I did there) to find a home for the Orioles cards and a new state as well - Virginia. I don't think I have traded with anyone from Virginia before, but I could be wrong. A great assortment of cards from the wants list, including these very nice Carl Yastrzemski cards.
Thanks Ryan.

Trade with Chris from Sac Bunt

There have been a number of newer blogs arriving on the scene lately and they raised the bar on blogging. The great looking site Sac Bunt Baseball is one one of them. Chris and John, Orioles and Twins supporters respectively, not only write very well but add, what I think, are some stunning photos. Where do they get those fantastic stadium shots? Their banner is particularly impressive and have me exploring for a better picture of my own blog. We recently undertook a trade, a first with these two, and I had my first helping back. What a brilliant selection of cards, including my first 2009 card, arrived from Vienna Virginia. Included was:

I sent off a little pile of Orioles cards to Kevin. A padded envelope arrived today from Baltimore containing 4 packs of cards.
  1. 2006 Fleer Ultra Baseball,
  2. 2007 Upper Deck Future Stars Baseball,
  3. 2008 Upper Deck Baseball First Edition,

Thanks for the cards Kevin. I pulled a nice Joe Smith Auto from the UD Future Stars.

Hope we can trade again.
