Postcrossing

(Sorry for the long silence, life got busy again! The husband has successfully had his second carpal tunnel surgery and we have had a Lot of winter weather,lol )

Saw this today on the Postcrossing blog

A Special call for postcards

a cool idea and I like it, I'm sending one..what do you want to bet Ana gets a lot more than 50,000 postcards? :)

I love Postcrossing  it's like getting a smile from a stranger in your mailbox whenever you receive a postcard. Check them out if you haven't done so yet, it's really a lot of fun!

Here's a postcard I received just the other day, for you to enjoy

Latest Postcard Received

the latest postcard I've received using a the Postcrossing website, comes from the southern part of Brazil !

Another Postcard :)

The latest postcard I received is from the Czech Republic, very cool. I need to get some kind of album or scrapbook, to keep all these postcards in!!

How life comes around in circles..I remember years ago in Girl Scouts, I collected postcards for a specific project, and placed them in an album. Interestingly enough, I received a postcard from where I now live, which of course I had no idea at the time I would eventually live here.

But anyway, thinking that I needed something to keep my current postcards in reminded me of that old album, and I have no idea whatever happened to it .

If you like sending and receiving postcards? Remember to check out Postcrossing  !!

More Postcards

It's been awhile since I updated with pictures of postcards I've been receiving through Postcrossing
since my last posting I've gotten some from

Istanbul

Kiev

Moscow

the Netherlands
(with my fave, lighthouses :)

Tucson (yes,I decided to start getting/sending postcards from around the US,too, I had just been doing international )

(and darn, all of a sudden getting a 'glare' from the flash when taking pictures of the postcards)

and just yesterday, got one from Belgium!

thus far, I've gotten 18 postcards via Postcrossing  I should have 5 more on the way, as I've got 5 'traveling' right now. That's what I like about this, you can't receive unless you send, which makes kind of a slow start when you first begin, but once you start getting the postcards? you're hooked! Hope you've enjoyed the cards!
