Piled Up

Well, with my limited amount of energy, I don't think I'm going to be able to continue with the North America Round Robin and it was the only one I hung on to after dropping out of all the others. I just don't have the "spoons" left for things I want to do. I will of course continue with the Official Postcrossing so I will at least have a few postcards, just not as many as before. Hopefully I will be able to rejoin the Round Robin after the first of the new year!

A really cool map card from Australia!


A funny card from Minnesota


A map of Holland


The wreck of a Cuban fishing boat in 1941, after a hurricane.


Beautiful early spring flowers in Belarus.

A juvenile and mature Bald Eagle.


Sculpted bear on the Cherokee Reservation in North Carolina.

Overlooked!

I received these and scanned them and then, didn't put them on my blog! I must have been interrupted, but here they are now!

I would love to sit and relax on this porch!


I cannot see making a cat an artistic statement, but then I guess there are many forms of art! :)

Here You Go

With more to look at!

From Hong Kong, the Chinese words on the card mean "In June the fiery days without rain, I hope you come here by rail." I think the picture in quite pretty!



From Lithuania, a local artist named Sigute Ach, and the art is entitled "The wings for the spring birds." So delicate and pretty!



A great map of Philadelphia - I've been there many times!



From Germany, the sender lives in a small village of only 230 inhabitants. 



The sender from Russia noticed it would soon be my birthday (July 2) and sent me a postcard wishing me a Happy Birthday and happiness, health, love and all the best. That was very kind of her!



From Germany, the sender mentioned that she heard President Obama speak over there.



Nevada map card



From my favorites, sent from China, this is an illustration of the beginning of Winter. I really like it!


A small picture, surrounded by large areas of white, showing the colors of New Orleans.

The End Of April!

The year is going by fast! When I was a child I used to hear my parents say with other adults that time went by faster the older you became and I didn't understand that until I got there. :)

Enjoy!

I love this card from Finland!


Lovely campus at the U of M!

Another Edward Gorey card for my collection; this is the cover illustration for The Gashlycrumb Times. I don't think I'd put my child in that daycare!


Nice fishing boat from Canada.


The Australian flag


Love this!!


From my friend in Arizona, this is a prickly pear cacti growing new pads, which are very edible when they are young. Don't you think he is a great photographer?


The interesting face of a vulture from the Ukraine.


Sent from Russia, a painting by Karl Briullov, Young Girl Gathering Grapes, 1827
