I should probably introduce myself as well. My name is Sara Wilson, and I've been a collector for about thirty years (I'm 38). I have a bachelors in biology which got me a job sifting sand (literally), so now I am an accountant. I live in Washington State next to southern Puget Sound, and most of my collection is from this area. I don't have as much time right now as I would like to collect and classify since I also have a farm and a family, but who ever has enough time?
