I received a beautiful well editted card from Joyce in British Columbia. I am envious of whatever form you use that you can put more than one picture on at a time.
Sweet dreams,

I had a jackpot today... An interesting card from Debbie in Alaska. I really like to read the backs with all of the information.
A San Francisco card from Dahl. I wonder if it still takes an entire year to paint that bridge.
A log cabin card from RoDonna. I am building a greenhouse from timbers I had milled and joined them at the corners with saddle notches like a log cabin. I wonder what they chinked the cabin in this picture with. When I took log cabin class many years ago we were told that people used spaghnum moss.
Thanks everyone,

I've received 19 of 27 postcards. I can't wait to receive the other 8. I'm learning about some interesting places to visit. Thanks, all.

Received two more Post Cards.
Joyce what a lovely family. A beautiful place to live. Thank Your for sharing pictures of your family and the area you live.
Debbie I love the Polar Bear post card. It reminds of the time I was at a zoo and a polar bear was sitting on a rock and appeared to be waving at people. Got a picture of it somewhere.

Many thanks to Dahl, Amy, Joyce, and RoDonna for the beautiful and interesting postcards.
Mine are going out in the next 2 weeks. We had to make an emergency trip to TN because my MIL has been put on hospice.
Hugs, Portia

YesterdayI received an interesting card from Amy. When I was a teen I went to Martha's Vineyard sailing camp for a month. It was run by one of the Girl Scout councils. I passed my Senior Life saving for the first time there. It was in the ocean and the waves were choppy. I thought I was lucky to live through the final test.

Very nice postcard, Amy. Interesting story of the Black Dog and her puppies. Thanks. 21 of 27 so far. It will be sad not getting any more postcards after the other 6 arrive.

I'm finally catching up on my thank yous from the cards that arrived while I was away!
RoDonna sent a beautiful card with Derby horses and the Old Kentucky Home on it. Kentucky is such a beautiful state. Some Derby runners are trained right here in Delaware, and I love Stephen Foster songs-- thanks so much!
From Debbie I got a card from Alaska with a delightful photo of a polar bear and some really interesting info about them. Visiting your state is on my bucket list, Debbie, thank you for the card to dream on!
Hi Joyce, and I really loved seeing your family on your card. How darling your kids are! A trip across Canada by train is also on my bucket list-- maybe I'll see you some day! :)
And finally, Connie, thank you for your thank you!:) I hope to move to the Vineyard in the not too distant future, and if I do you'll have a place to stay if you visit!
I sure will miss the postcards when the swap is over. What a spirit booster they have been!
Happy Day! Peace in our hearts, peace in the world Amy (Sister#6098) www.danaherandcloud.com

Very neat postcard, Portia. Came in the mail today. I love the pictures. WOW! Retiring to Ecuador is really a far place to go to.
My boyfriend and I are booking a cruise for the 1st week of December - to Cozumel, Belize, and Mahogany Bay Honduras. He does volunteer medical work in Honduras, but then he is in the inland mountains - we will see a different part of Honduras. Can't wait. Maybe next year my postcards will be pics of the Caribbean?
