Do you enjoy playing board games? I absolutely enjoy playing board games, and it’s low-key became an obsession of mine over the last few years.
On certain weekends I will hit up flea markets, garage sales, as well as swap meets looking for people who have interesting board games to sell or trade! After I got three or four dozen of them, I realized that a couple of them were vintage, and could be worth a pretty penny.
With me being me, I decided I needed to treat the games as an investment as well as transport toward protecting them accordingly! I got a special storage closet with a dedicated temperature control plan to keep them at the optimum levels of humidity and temperature. Maybe it sounds silly to get a little Heating as well as an Air Conditioning system just for our board games, however you’ve never seen our collection before! With that being said, all of this came to head recently when a pressing ice storm trapped me as well as our friends inside, without power or heating of any sort. The two of us were able to keep moderate with a roaring fire in the fireplace, however boredom turned out being a much bigger problem, however under much pressure, I agreed to unlock our temperature controlled room as well as let them option any of the non-vintage games to play with while we were snowed in, and since the power was out the dedicated Heating and Air Conditioning plan wasn’t working anyway, so the less fun games would be okay to play with. It helped to pass the time, however as soon as the power came back on I put all the games back where they belonged, and eventually got the Heating and Air Conditioning plan working again.
