Got a lovely Post Card from Margo. All the flowers on it, except the cattail, grow in my yard here in Michigan. Gave up trying to plant other flowers and just let the wildflowers take over. Sure is pretty and less work. Thanks! Margo.

Tammy B. ~ I loved your African Postcard!!! It was so colorful and the Children
looked happy even loaded down with all that produce.
It sounded like both you and your husband did a Wonderful Service over there.
God Bless you for doing what so many of us wish we could do but never get the
opportunity or don't have the financial means to go. Your work is so appreciated!
blessings and hugs,
Peggy

Got my last 10 cards to go in the mail. Thanks CJ. I have SO enjoyed all the cards sent to me. I have been ill so often this summer. It really cheers me up to get a little farmgirl mail and pretend I am there, whatever card you all send me. This is always such a fun swap.
Hugs, Joey

I am still missing cards from:
Sherry, Carisa, Tammy, Laurie, Tracey, Amber, Diana
and Alicia R. Maybe they will arrive this week or next.
Thanks for hosting CJ and I've so enjoyed receiving all the
wonderful postcards from so many interesting places. I hope this
exchange continues. We all enjoy it and look forward to it each year!

I received cards today from Tammy and Laurie.
Laurie, Love the Fire Island postcard! I've probably heard of that location for at least 40 yrs. Never really knew where it was. Sounds like a beautiful place. My very first roommate was from Babylong, Long Island. (Don't know why I remember that...we were only together about 2 weeks.) Thank you!
Tammy, what a wonderful and meaningful working vacation you must have had! Thank you for sharing? I always wondered how people could carry such a load on their heads. Are those pads I see under the containers. That must help a lot. I take so much for granted..sigh.
I love receiving the postcards all month long. It makes a day special! Thanks again, CJ!

I,too, received postcards from Fire Island and Africa. They are both pretty to look at. I have heard of Fire Island over the years. I think that when I am more child free I would like to go someplace to help. I am glad to live vicariously through you.

I got another post card today and two the other day, One from Peggy with beautiful tulips on them with the barns in the back, One from Africa from Tammy B, what a neat experience you had there. One from Fire Island from Laurie, What a beautiful card.
Thanks so much, and now I have 25 now as well.
Yay!

Laurie...I loved the Orient Point Lighthouse. I am a huge lover of Lighthouses...and always
thought it would be cool to live in one. I love how they are all so different and how their
locations are as unique as the structures themselves.
Thanks and Hugs,
Peggy

Yippee! I received two more Post Cards. I have now received 25.
One from Laurie-- Love Lighthouses. Sounds like a nice place to live.
From Tammy-- that is awesome! Not many of us could go to another country and do what you did. That's great.

I received two more postcards yesterday!
Thanks to Laurie for the scenic lighthouse postcard and to
Tammy for her colorful Ivory Coast card. Working vacations are
sometimes the most fruitful and certainly sounds like yours was
that and more!
Nini, I'll be looking forward to your postcard as well!

Thank you Tammy for the African photos, the gardener in me wants to know
if they can grow everything there?
Thanks Laurie for the beautiful pictures of Fire Island!

No final push just wanted to be one of the last this is really fun and I wanted to stretch it out. Some days it is the only good thing in the mail.
