My son Jake completed his 4 year College degree with a Bache lor of Science, major of percussion performance from Berklee College of Music in Boston in 2015. The gratification of being able to do such a momentous task without saddling my son with a huge student loan at the end is truly gratifying.
Now with tuition payments behind us, I can start lowering those home equity loans that were part of the mix & help him pay off his small student loan. His studies at Berklee have been successful in preparing him for a career in the music industry.
After playing local in Boston for a couple years in September 2017 he embarked a new journey in music.... So far he's traveled throughout Asia. In 2018 he explored Europe. Not too bad for a 26 year old! In March of 2019 he took the plunge and moved out to LA to pursue his dream.. Until the world of performance entertainment came to a halt early in 2020. Still engaging in electronic and virtual work, he is making ends meet... And is hoping this COVID pandemic is over soon and his music career can get back on track! His web site is also up and running: JakeDick (dot com) Take a look if you're curious! I've been doing Flea Marketing and Antiquing ever since I was in my 20's, and my love for the search has helped me complete this seemingly impossible journe y. Ziggy is my Quaker Parrot who was a rescue from a broken home and I found him at a flea market during spring of 2010.He has quite a vocabulary now with "Good Morning" and "Hello" topping the repeat over and over list. We've now added "Love you" and No..
To the conversation :- Anyways... Vintage unusual jewelry How did I acquire it??? I got my initial stash of stuff back in the 70's and 80's when my mom Helen & I used to go flea marketing, and antique hunting together. Oh, every Thursday was garage sale day, and we'd go off and spend lots of quality time together.
Mom is now is gone, but I have all our treasures... And there are boxes and boxes of them. They are all in my crawl space, and I've been taking out and discovering treasures I never even knew I had!Mom used to always tease me that out mother-daughter hobby would become my "inheritance" and that it would make me wealthy. I've been doing this now for over 3 years... And I still have boxes and boxes of untouched undiscovered treasures.
It's like going down memory lane when I dig & photograph! Yes, I'm still digging out old boxes out, but, I'm also picking up new pieces weekly from local resale/flea markets/antique shows in NE Ohio.... so, when you see "newer" pieces.... That's where they are coming from.
