Hello,
My name is Michael. I am originally from Florida but retired from the Military in 2004 and currently reside in Kentucky. I am married with two grown daughters and 3 granddaughters and 1 grandson that all live within 25 miles of me. I have been collecting Disney Pins for about 20 years and have gotten my wife into collecting as well. We currently have a trip scheduled to Disney World for July 1-7 2025 just for pin trading. Not much into the rides anymore.
I joined DPF in order to better organize my collection. I am still working to get all of them entered as well. I always seem to acquire pins that I already have and have to trade them again. I don't really have a theme to my madness just like collecting whatever catches my eye. I hope to be able to be better at collecting.
Take Care
 
Welcome to the forum!
That must be wonderful having the extended family nearby.

20 years collecting? That's great. You must have a very nice collection with some interesting pins. Looking forward to learning more over time. And I can very much relate to acquiring pins I already have. Bane of my existence.
 
Welcome!

Have you used any of the online trading databases? Many here (myself included) recommend Pin and Pop for having an online database of your pins, traders, and pins you are in search of (iso).

Yes, I have Pin and Pop and also an app for my phone as well.
Have an excel spreadsheet that I started years ago with mostly what I have.
 
Hi Michael and Welcome! We're so happy you've found us, thank you so much for your service. Have a wonderful time at WDW, we look forward to hearing about how much fun you had and seeing the amazing new pins you acquired!
 
Hi there, and welcome to DPF! Sometimes just collecting what speaks to us rather than having a specific other theme works the best! I wish you luck during your trip next week!
