    When it comes to knowledge and experience, I'm as green as they come. My mother collected paintings, furniture, and jewelry but, unfortunately, passed away recently. I grew up in Texas but have fallen in love with the Desert SW. With this in mind, I'm looking to honor her and connect to her by collecting Western and Southwestern Antiques. That or whatever appeals to my eye and passion for history. Anyway, really looking forward to learning from of you all, or wait, y'all. Thank you in advance :happy:

    Welcome Brent ! Sorry for your loss...at 60 I have two 86 year old parents and I am walking down that path soon..... It's nice to have neat things left from a parent to remind you of them ... In my case , I will have to weed out a lot , can't hold on to everything ......

    Welcome. South west is a good place to find good antiques. Rich history and lots of retirees.

    Thank you, very well said. Same here - got to make some tough choices regarding what to keep and what to let go.

    Pardon the cliche, but make the most of the time you have left with your parents. Be in the moment. :happy:

    Thank you! And great point about retirees! Been hearing stories about folks finding treasures, if you will, here in AZ.
