Five (!) more cards arrived today. Thank you:

#7 @alcott1 for the beautiful view of the University of Illinois. Iā€™m sure it looks amazing in the spring.

#13 @ladybug513 for the great card of the Christopher Gallagher House in Cape May, NJ. Love the cat sticker & stamps.

#15 @AccentOnHakes for the awesome round barn card. In fact, my great uncle was a Perdue grad. He went on to work for NASA and was the chief engineer of the Black Hawk helicopter :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

#19 @ellistrations for the fabulous cat card, stickers and stamps. I hate returning things to stores!

#27 @Avery_Ellis for the wonderful rendering of the Guggenheim Museum. I havenā€™t been there, to tell the truth. Iā€™ve only been to NYC a couple times in my life, and just havenā€™t made it there yet.

Thanks everyone!

#28 received:

#7 @alcott1 an art card by Juan Gris

#19 @ellistrations Super Friends (Ruh Rohā€¦doggy has a cape).

#22 @uconn A card from Irelandā€™s Great Hunger Museum titled ā€œScalp of Brian Connerā€. I thought that was such an unusual title I ā€œgoogledā€ it. It said a scalp is a hole dug in the earth, some two or three feet deep. In such a place was the abode of Brian Connor. He and two family members lived in this hole for several months before it was discovered. (During the Irish Potato famine 1849). Geez.

#2 @CrimsonKing - feather pattern, thank you! Brisket sounds tasty! Weā€™ll likely make something or just do our own thing. We donā€™t generally celebrate Valentines day.

#5 @carolreader - Barbie surfing, thank you! Iā€™m with you, I love choices! So I have so many sets, individual random cards and books. I have had many for the last year because I have WAY too many to send in a year and then some.

#11 @Daniellenharris91 - gnomes, thank you! I love them, so cute! Happy February and Valentines Day to you as well.

#12 @NittanyLionRI - Totoro, thank you! Yes, I love these movies. They all tell great stories and half of them make me cry (easy to do). Itā€™s about who you know. Growing up in Hawaii, I was introduced and I had a few Japanese craze fans as friends here.

#22 @uconn - cuckoo clock, thank you! A snow birthday sounds like the perfect birthday!

#5 - Iā€™ve received my first two cards (seems like my post office is slower getting these than some others):

#15 @AccentOnHakes sent me a worried-looking bald woman. Iā€™d worry, too! Iā€™m not running so well in general (age!) and even worse lately - 18 inches of snow on the ground, though the roads are often clear (between snows). Nasty winter, this year. I know a lot of you have the same thing. But yah for your sister!

#22 @uconn - another cool card from James. This one is from a medical museum in Philadelphia, with three Halloween-worthy skeletons.

Thanks to you both. The cards are on display here here.

My first three cards arrived yesterday:

#7 @alcott1 - a statue of Sacajawea and infant son at Lewis & Clark Community College in Godfrey, IL. Iā€™ve been to sites at the western end of their journey, but never to the eastern end.

#13 @ladybug513 - a Valentineā€™s Day card for current times, complete with hand sanitizer and mask.

#19 @ellistrations - a brooding view of the Salton Sea. I looked up details.

Thanks, everyone, from #16.

Also, yesterday, I mailed cards 1-3. Today I mailed 4-6.
