#11 @TandemStoker sends an illustrated card advertising the zoo at Regents Park. I love sitting in my backyard in the mornings, too. Bird watching has become such a lovely thing to do.
#27 @HookedonPostcards sends a beautiful view card of Boldt Castle. I would love to go on that boat and see this lovely castle. You have really intrigued me with what you wrote and I am going to have to read up on the history of this place! Great washi and stickers, too. I think I also want to get one of the āthank you mail carrierā stamps nowā¦haha.

As you are currently reading about pirates, I recently heard an interesting podcast on the life of Zheng Yi Sao. Most interesting! How a woman achieves autonomy in a dangerous manās world ā¦

#23 @Nique - A Greetings from Canada card, with map, and lots of facts. Thank you. You asked a couple of questions. Hootnoodle was an extra middle name given to me as a child by my father, as in āMary Middle Hootnoodle Lastā. My older brother and next sister got similar silly names, but I donāt remember them for the two youngest sibs who came along several years later. As for Bookcrossing, Iāve cut way back in the last year and a half. I used to leave books everywhere - grocery store, doctorās office, bus stop, laundromats, park picnic tables, etc., with a sticky note on the front, with āFree Book, See Inside Coverā. Iāve gone inside almost no buildings in months, and early in the pandemic thought it unlikely that people would be willing to pick up stray books lying around. Iām going to start again soon. I love the Little Free Libraries. I donāt have one, but have left my books in some.

#8 @Shesa-Renegade ā haha! Another card in the āmonkeyā series, or whatever this series is called. I like it! Thanks! I like Lady Gaga too, but Iāve only watched āA Star is Bornā once ā in a theater, in what seems like a long time ago!
#10 @emotis ā The National WWII Museum in New Orleans. The part about following an individual soldierās experience does sound way cool! Thank you! Wish I could visit, but probably not soon.

#10 @emotis cute covid card! I remember when I was in high school living in Illinois, and we had a visit from the Cicadas. They were everywhere! It was awful when they would fall out of the trees and onto your head! At least they are only around for the summer.

Three more wonderful cards have shown up in my mailbox this past week. Thank you to
#18 @theosprey247 for the awesome shot of Orange Street Alley in your city. What a cool spot!
#20 @Triol for the great Maine Coon in a snow field card. Our boy Jupiter loved a quick romp in the snowā¦until he realized it was cold and wet. LOL I miss that boy!
#27 @HookedonPostcards for the fabulous card of Berlin in 1900. I love all of the decorations and the amazing stamps! If everything works out, we plan on going to Poland in mid July. However, we have to wait to see what the regulations will be for vaccinated Americans. We have everything booked (refundable, of course!) except the flights. So fingers crossed!

Hope Villette is getting the hang of it. It seems that they just wake up one day and it all falls into place at least during the daytime hours. Good luck!
