Living very close to Renninger's in Adamstown, PA, made it very easy to go treasure hunting! I belong to a few clubs and have attended conventions and auctions. I buy and sell on eBay occasionally. My collection is not large or composed of high end pieces, but I love the wide range of shapes and colors that are available. I retired 2-1/2 years ago, last working as a senior account rep for a major specialty steel manufacturer after 35 years of service. I love to travel, (cruises, NASCAR races, Vegas). Lost my husband to esophageal cancer 6-1/2 years ago but have a new guy now and am having fun educating him on the beauty of carnival glass!
