Holly - you're right! It's AMAZING seeing the same sun rise and set on both oceans...I think I prefer the Atlantic Ocean though - it's so open and leads you to Europe :) And the sunrises/sunsets are FAR more superior than on the Pacific I think! It's honestly been an privilege to live on both coasts. Linda - I've been to Edmonds before - and I'm glad you get to enjoy seal watching too! Jenne - I'm glad you enjoyed the card :) I had fun making it! |

I have 6 more wonderful Post Cards. It sure is great to see how different each one is.
Joyce- I love the Post Card with all the pictures of different places across Canada. CJ- That is a beautiful view of the Mountains. So glad I was able to see the mountains in Colorado. At least part of them. Carole- It's amazing that the Mission that large was built in the desert of Arizona Darlene- I love vintage post cards. California is a lovely State. Shannon- Looks like there is lots to to at Charles Towne Landing in South Carolina Kristi Beale Street in Memphis looks like it would be lots of fun.
I have been able to travel in each of these states and from the Ambassador Bridge in Detroit to Prescott, Canada.
Thanks for the great Post Cards! Farm Girl Hugs, Brenda

I received a beautiful card of shots of Canada, thanks Joyce! Judith your songbirds are great, you're so lucky to have so many! We get a lot of Chickadees. Love your mission Carole, I grew up by the Santa Barbara mission it was sandstone colored like the entrance to yours, is it painted? Debbie |

You are so welcome Holly. I received a unique vintage postcard of the Leaning Tower of Pisa from Darlene. Yes, I would love to go there and ride in the gondolas and see the tower. Really enjoying all the fun postcards!

Carole, I received your beautiful postcard showing "The White Dove of the Desert". I have read about that mission church before; but, had never seen at picture of it. Thank you.
Shannon, one of my favorite memories is visiting Charleston, SC. We saw a lot of the architecture. I'm sure we did not visit Charles Towne Landing. That's one more thing to put on the bucket list. Our family loves historical sites and forts. Thank you so much.
These cards arrived the day we left for DS's surgery. We returned home Friday aft. but, he was readmitted to the hosp. early Sat. morn. He went home again today. I haven't taken time to work on my cards.

Whoohoo! Got more postcards!!!!!!!
1.Darlene Ricotta picture of vintage garage! I love it because my grandpa had one in the 1930's and someone stole a car out of it. It was later found. 2.Linda Terry a picture of Mount Rainier , my husband has been to Washington when he was twelve. It was quite an adventure. He had to save his baby sister when she feel in the river and then she got bit by a monkey. Had two flat tires and a busted rim. First time his mom used the new disposable diapers for the baby, She was happy she had 4 children! 3. Carole Morris, a pic of a beautiful San Xavier Mission. I love to visit those . They are so interesting. 4. Joyce Hein wonderful pics of Canada with pic from East to West Cost. Thank you all for the wonderful adventures that your cards bring me.
HUGS Marlee

I am glad you like the post card Judith and I know you will enjoy the Redwoods up here, It is so beautiful and don't forget to go to the Avenue of the Giants and Fort Humboldt in Eureka it is really a nice place to see and you can see the steam donkey's they used to log with.
