Wow, so for those that don't follow my Facebook page, I finally completed the process of applying to Guinness World Records for the "Largest collection of Adventures in Odyssey memorabilia". I first applied in March of 2014, so it's taken nearly 3 years of jumping through hoops and battling red tape to get here. On Monday January 23rd,2017 Nathan Hoobler & Bob Smithouser came to my home to authenticate and count my collection. Hopefully you will see that in an upcoming podcast or AIOClub Bonus section. I anticipate getting the GWR Certificate in a couple months when they process the documentation.
The Final Official Count was 1,211 Items.
If you want to see the video I shot it's on my Facebook page.

No, but we do pray he grows up to be like Whit. It's quite a name to live up to.

Haha! yes as well as the newest Writer on the Team, Sam Suksiri.
Hopefully Focus will publish the video soon, still waiting for GWR to send me my Certificate. Trying to be patient, but it's been 12 weeks now they have had the video, and all the documents and still no word...
