Vicky: 3

Ani: 0

I've received 3 postcards already!  The first was from Cathedral Falls,WV which Vicky told me is about 25 mins from where she lives.  It's very strking and, I would think, a good place to visit to regain a sense of peace.

Postcard #2 was from the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum which I immediately had to check into.  I was happy to see there are ghost tours as the edifice seems to inspire the idea of ghosts.

And yesterday I received one from Pittsburg, PA, where Vicky had just visited.

I need to get on the ball! 

I pick up postcards today.  So I will be sending out later this week.  Going to the post office also to get postcard stamps. 

Ani,

There isn't a scorecard for postcards.  I do get about a lot and I love sending happy mail.  Vicky

Thank you REK for the great postcard of South Dakota! This state was one of my wishes to get a post card from. So happy to have it!

Thank you, Diane R. salliebear ,   for the postcard of Congo the gorilla.  I love going to zoos and the Bronx Zoo is one that I haven't been to yet.

I received 2 postcards today! 

From Vicky T. (vickyt) A really neat Pittsburgh card at night with the skyscrapers!  Thank you so much for taking the time to send me another card while you were on your trip for Lee. I really appreciate this extra cheer today :-)

From Amy T. (amistad) a really neat card of George Washington Carver National Monument.  I just love seeing this!  Thank you so much for picking this one out for me. Would love to visit someday! :-)

Another postcard from Vicky today recounting part of the Hatfield-McCoy history.  I watched a TV miniseries about this a few years ago (Kevin Costner and Bill Paxton) and became fascinated.  I read several articles and books about them so this was especially cool.  I am especially intrigued by this line on the postcard: "His gravesite (Hatfield)...is located off Hwy 44, neear Sarah Ann, West Virgina, a place that many maps fail to acknowledge."  Now, what is the story behind that?  

I looked all weekend for postcards and couldn't find any.  I'm headed to town this week so will look further.  

I've got to find some Tampa ones.  I have Orlando ones but I'm much closer to Tampa so want to get some of those to send out!  We don't have those 'gift shops' you see all around Orlando.

Got a cool card from Melissa yesterday from the university of Notre dame. I would love to walk around there. I think of the movie "Rudy". Thanks! :)

Thank you, Towana, for the Chicago postcard.  I would love to convince Lee to visit there.  I have been working on him for two years.

Hey everyone! I actually mailed some postcards out yesterday... so yay! Jennifer you can be on the lookout!

I received two wonderful postcards today!

Towana (ladypink) Thank you for a surprise card from Chicago! It looks so beautiful with so much to see and do. I would love to visit Buckingham Fountain! Thank you so much for sharing another card with me... I appreciate the extra cheer.

Amy T. (amistad) Oh you surprised me some more! A card of the Rosalie House!  This is so gorgeous and I just love that it is an artsy place with bed and breakfasts. This is exactly the kind of place I would love to spend some time in. Looks relaxing and tons of fun.  I would love to see all of the creative things there.  Thank you so much!

I got a nice postcard from Towana as well..pretty flowers.:)

Another day, 3 more postcards!

A friendly little colour-your-own postcard from Vicky and a second one from Pittsburgh!

And a surprise postcard from Towana of Buckingham fountain!

The good news is I was finally able to find a postcard today to send out myself! 

Thank you to Towana for the postcard from Chicago!  I love the skyline.  I do like to visit Chicago, although I haven't been there in a while except to drive through it.

Thank you to Amy for the postcard from Missouri!  That looks like such a peaceful place to walk.  I've never "visited" Missouri, although I have driven through it on my way to Louisiana.

Loved the Chicago post card, Im using it as a bookmark, Towana!! I also got a load of Asylum postcard(which I asked for from VICKY T.) BEAUTIFUL!

I have been meaning to send this thank you out for awhile now.......please forgive me.  I have been pretty sick, but I am hopefully on the mend now.  Thank you so much to Rebecca M from NC for the lovely notecard, postcard and darling stickers.  Your gift came at just the perfect time as I was feeling so down at being sick for so long!  It definately put a smile on my face and brightened my whole month.

(((HUGS)))

Thank you so much to Michelle (rissyloud) for the lovely postcard  of the Pinetown bridge in PA.  Your area looks lovely!   I too love to go garage sailing!!   I was so excited to see the cute stickers and washi tape that you used to decorate the postcard.  I wouldn't have ever thought to do that...but now I will...thank you for the GREAT idea.  

P.S.  Your printing is beautiful!!

((HUGS))

Jennifer  (luvmy5kidlets)
