I received a card from @Jasondavid and thanked him but the message has disappeared. It was a card of the National Art Gallery in Ottawa.
All of my January 2021 RR postcards have been sentđ

@lyndac your message wasnât posted here, but in the messages. Hereâs what you wrote:
Thank you Jason David for the postcard of the National Gallery in Ottawa
@dietarygal : This is where you should post your thanks and cards. Thanks!
Hi I recieved my first R&R post card today !! ( Is this is where I write updates
) Thank you Linda C
How exciting! I have received cards from @JasonDavid @helloleah27 @dietarygal @lyndac @evank (a trilogy 
) I like walking down to the mailbox when there is a postcard prize waiting for me! I donât know what I like best, the friendly words, the beautiful pictures, or the stamps. Each is a suprise. Can you imagine having these short conversations with random people on the sidewalk? What is it about receiving a few lines from a stranger on a postcard so welcome, and yet a few lines from a stranger on a bus or elevator so awkward? Take care, stay healthy, and do fun things!

The coldest day in Ottawa in two years was a big mail day!
From @stormarela, a colourful drawing of Nanton, Alberta - love the architecture and elevators, thanks Susan!
From @lyndac, a neat card from the Frederick Banting museum in London, Ontario. What a beautiful desk, and even an Ingersoll cheese museum postmark - thanks Lynda!
From @evank, an unlikely trio: an amazing painting of Yuri Gagarin, an Afrikaans language monument in South Africa, and Johnston Canyon in Banff. Fantastic, thanks Evan!
Something new for the new year: Iâve added the images below, beginning with the previously reported card from @AnitaGrace.

Iâm working on my postcards now so they will go out tomorrow. Iâm working on a bunch of other projects right now and have so many piles of crap everywhere that I couldnât easily get at my postcards until last nightâŚI canât ever do just one thing at a time!
Meanwhile, I have received from:
@evank - Golden, BC, a volcano crater on Maui (it would be really interesting to hike there!), and Arrowtown, New Zealand
@dietarygal - a lovely serene view of Basin Head, PEI
@stormarela - a cool apple box label from days gone by
@JasonDavid - Alcatraz - yes, prisons are definitely an obscure wishlist item!
@helloleah27 - a great vintage Coca-Cola sign hanging on a door
Thank you all!

@helloleah27 - a fantastic cat card (and yes, itâs cold here too - hope youâre keeping warm!)
@garvey - a cool vintage mallard duck card (and some vintage Christopher Plummer moments in the stamp)
@evank - a fantastic trio! My girls especially love the adorable fawn and the platypus
@dietarygal - native birds of PEI (wood ducks are amazing)
Thank you all so much!
