Summertime!

Well, summer is here in earnest! We've had so much rain the past few weeks and I am glad we live on the side of a hill, so that there is no chance of flooding! The ground outside is like walking on a wet sponge. It's been a good thing though, our area has been under drought conditions for the past few years.

(and to answer the question from the last post - I don't know exactly what the grannies were doing, I was wondering myself!)

Enjoy the postcards!

I think this may be my first Maine postcard!

Sudak, Genoese Fortress, sent from the Ukraine

Lovely bicycle postcard from France

A collection of lighthouses from Holland

An Edward Gorey card, 12 Lords a'leaping- except they look more like they are walking sedately. Now, the ladies look more like they are "a'leaping"!

Sent from Canada, a postage stamp image

Nice Group

It's another beautiful day today in the mountains of South Carolina!

Nice composition view of shrimp boats in Texas.

Another Rt. 66 card for my collection! On Pinterest I have board for this too, and some great memorabilia photos!

Beautiful view of the Polish countryside.

One of the wonderful views in Sedona Arizona. If the Lord ever allows me to become well enough to travel, Arizona is one of the first places I want to go - they have sooo many great nature places and also I could spend time with a dear friend whom I've never met in person!

From France, I imagine it takes a great deal of starch to make those lace caps stay like that, and I'm not sure how the wearers make them stay put!

A black face sheep looking out of the barn in Sauder Village, Archibold Ohio.

A painting by Toulouse-Lautrec of a hound dog eyeing a brave chicken!

And I just love this view of bicycles, from the movie Red's Dream.

And Some More!

I am so thankful, I have not had a severe migraine now in several days and I wish I could describe the difference it makes in my life! It makes the other symptoms of the ME easier to bear. Here are several more postcards, and I still have a stack of 25 more to scan and list! Also, it was nice to see that this blog does have readers and that they aren't upset because it's so sporadic - thanks!

Enjoy!!

From my friend in Tucson, he had to stop in the middle of the road since the sign is in the median. I'm so pleased he risked his life for me! :)
