All righty, the card I started for Lynn has been dropped in the mailbox and thus has left the station headed for Kimmy!

I received a card from Robin in today's mail and forwarded on to its last destination---Sara. 

This is my first "train" so I didn't include an instruction sheet. I apologize and will get it straight for next year.

No worries, Pickles. It was easy to figure out who it continues on to :)

Thursday hello to all of you! :) Checking to be sure each of you have gotten your min trains? Would you want to ride again this way? The process was certainly MUCH quicker and simpler! I truly pray it was also more fun and as a few of us have said, more personal (due to fewer riders) as well. Let me know and if you'd ever want to try this agin. Thanks and have a Blessed Thursday :)

Well, it appears most of you liked it that way, dont stop on my account. It could be because I had to help Raven too. It was 6 different times to mail out and some cards didnt have addresses in them. It was very tough. Perhaps if it was just for one train.

Thanks, Kimmy. I just came here to add to my post, you quickly came first! to thank you so much for conducting! I am so glad Raven got to join in, too. I'm sorry :( It is important to include addresses even though it would just be a couple of them (also to keep cards sorted)! The old way is just one way instead of four! I did not think about the extra PO trips just (instead of once for a big train) just the ease of a simpler (I hoped) process. 

Should we try this ever again, we could always wait to start card #2 until the first person had received theirs and so on. That way only 1 train running at a time but still each person in a group would receive one. There is always the simplest one to one matches :)

That is a good idea Mona about waiting till each recieves. Cause it was happening fast. If it worked for everyone else, it may have been some were confused about Raven and I both at the same address? Not sure. In future, Id just have it be Raven. She really enjoyed it!!
