When my little brother was born in 1958, I got my first army men, I was three. Today is my 70th birthday. I am blessed with a great wife, a wonderful daughter, and a fantastic home. I have been retired for 8 years and it's great. I have lots of time to spend time at home with my wife, dog and the army men.
I don't hunt, fish, sail boats, or travel. I have done all that stuff, and now I love staying home. We have spent as many as 23 days home alone without having to go anywhere. It's great. I have been posting on this blog every day since 2008. I have over 25,000 photos of my collection and my plan is to keep going for years to come.
Thank you for reading my blog, enjoying the photos and making comments. I am still buying army men, and my beloved wife and darling daughter got me more for my birthday. I am so blessed to have such a great life, living here in rural Kentucky; our neighbors are cattle, we get rabbits, foxes, coyotes, raccoons, squirrels, and all sorts of critters here.
The blog as been stuck at about 200 views per day for a couple years. It would be great to get those numbers up a little. So if you can sometimes put a comment at the end of the blog, or mention the blog to a friend, that would be helpful.
Thanks for reading and may God bless you all.

Happy Birthday Mike!
You have a very interesting blog indeed, and I visit it regularly. I'm also 'advertising' for it, by adding a link to it on my own blog. I usually don't have so many visits to my own blog, but recently the numbers of hits has suddenly increased. This seems to be a thing amongst more bloggers, and perhaps a result of AI spiders crawling the web.
Great blog. I'm looking forward to follow your posts.
Happy birthday. You beat me to 70 by 7 days but I'm not complaining! Hope the day went well.
Thank you Roger. That's very kind of you.
You will love it when you get here!
Many happy returns!
