Another Group

Enjoy!

Northern Kazakhstan Mountains (UNESCO site), sent from the US.



A vintage Nebraska postcard. Did you know the WEST began in Nebraska?



Black Forest Heritage Village in Germany.



Alcatraz Lighthouse; I guess it was separate from the prison!



This is a hoot - a postcard of the old Bonanza TV show, sent from Belgium!



Lovely hummingbirds from Michigan.



Peaceful spot in Virginia.



This is great! It's a photo taken by the sender in Wilmington NC (he lives in St. Petersburg, FL) and then he added some bits to make it seem like she was swimming out of one area into another, AND added a stamp which celebrates the 1948 Olympics - which were held in London! Mail Art from another member of IUOMA.

From Germany, the poem reads "A Friend, Is like a lighthouse, who has overview, if we see anything; who gives orientation, if we don't know; who gives security, when we feel lost." I think that is a beautiful poem!
