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

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.



Washington & Lee University, Lee Chapel, General Robert E. Lee's final resting place.
