#3 @harleyq2btrue - Florida sounds great! It’s been surprisingly breezy here even so I’m ready for the summer heat to kick in :rofl:

#5 @sleepyhippo1 - Oddly enough, I like learning about coffee but not so much drinking it haha! Caffeine puts me to sleep :sweat_smile:

#7 @nursegarry - Sounds like you’ve got a fun summer ahead of you. Safe travels and have fun :smiling_face:

#9 @virgomar0918 - Isn’t there just something so comforting about the smell of coffee brewing in the mornings? I’m the same way when I start off the day with some tea :+1:

@virgomar0918 Lou paper summer garden. Everything on this card looks delicious. You have not sent this card already.
@saoirse253 Anne of Green Gables. I didn’t read the books until I was an adult. One of the rare series where I like both the books and the movies.

Thank you both for the great cards

#3 checking in for the month of June,
its been a interesting couple of days so im a bit behind, hopefully by the weekend life will be “normal” what ever that is.

#5 @sleepyhippo1, selected a beautiful Snake River at sunset postcard, its been windy here as well, i keep expecting our power to go out. so far we’ve been lucky, i hope that yours blew all the “bad” bugs away & kept all the ones that are “good” flowers and fruits and veggies are important :slight_smile:

opps one more lost in the pile
#6 @potatertot a wonderful Ft. Walton Beach & Okaloosa Island in Florida card, yep lol i know i have salt water in my veins, ours are just two different oceans, i hope we can both get some beach time this summer. as its good for the mind and heart!

#7 @nursegarry, sent a nice surprise with a ancient Egyptian motif. i love this card! i like to think i would have abstained from the Victorian Egyptomania, but i probably wouldn’t have. Yes im with you ive been very interested in the Cicadas as well there fascinating! i have seen them do it but only during a documentary on the subject of poisonous beetles i dont know how close i would like to see them do it though.

from #9 @virgomar0918 , sent a fun “rose truck” card. wouldn’t that be nice, a truck driving around like a ice cream truck randomly delivering roses to people. lol growing up my mothers favorite color was pink (still is her favorite) so im a little pinked out lol. but thats why different things come in different colors, everyone likes something different!

thank you everyone for the awesome postcards!!

#3 @harleyq2btrue - I always love a Beatle card, and yes on an event in Tacoma in the fall; working out the details (with a card even)
#5 @sleepyhippo1 - I love this shrink-wrapped puzzle card; it looks so retro, where did you find this?
#6 @potatertot - The Owney story is so sweet; there is a picture book of this that I read to my son when he was little; your card reminded me of it, and I checked it out to read to my visiting grandson. Thank you!
#7 @nursegarry - couldn’t agree more, he was a class act; darn the post office tore the paper on the back of the card and I’m missing some of your message. I wonder what you keep telling…??? That someday things will make sense again? :grinning:
#9 @virgomar0918 - this sweet cat reminds me of my Lucy. She’s always staring up at the counter. :slight_smile:
#10 @antoniaseagull - thank you so much for sharing your family Watership Down story. What a wonderful memory to have. I first experienced this story from my 5th grade teacher reading it to the class. The magic of books. :heart:
