Hello. I’m Clay Morgan. Welcome to my little corner of the stamp-collecting world.
Like many people, I wear a lot of hats. My favorite is pictured below. I love this photo of my three favorite people on the planet when we visited New York City a few years ago! It reflects so much joy and brings me a surge of wonderful memories when I look at it.

A dad and his girls in New York City.
Now on to brass tacks.
The quick bullet points. I am many things:
- A dad.
- A Christian.
- A military veteran (U.S. Coast Guard).
- A teacher.
- A journalist.
- A judo fighter.
- A professional writer.
- A stamp collector.
- A gardener.
- A wanderer.
- So much more.
Collecting stamps and postal history has been a huge part of my life for decades. It is a hobby I love and one I share with my children. Not limited to this list, but here are my “areas” of philately:
- Haiti – stamps. Collected on Steiner Pages.
- Ireland – stamps. Collected on White Ace Pages.
- General Worldwide – stamps. Collected in Scott International “Big Blues.”
- U.S. Coast Guard Postal History. Collected in Vario Pages.
- Scouts on Stamps – stamps and postal history. Collected in Vario Pages.
I also have a mishmash collection – just stuff that interests me. It is mostly housed in Vario pages. Or neat and highly organized piles. Yea, that’s it. Neat and highly organized.
