been awhile...

Belarus- I like this one a lot, very historical! Bonn Germany, I recall that building type when I was in Austria




Route 66, I've been on parts of it as it begins near where I live.





Russia St. Petersburg. Neat, cause' all I had of Russia was Moscow.








NH- I've been there 3 or 4 times and missplaced my postcards from there, so I was glad to receive one. It is a lovely state and I even almost moved there once!







Also, I no longer need any Utah cards as I bought some on my trip.





Thanks to those who sent me cards,

it has been quite some time since I received them and they're now all snug into their album so I don't recall who sent them but thank you again!

Yay! My mom was going through some boxes and found my oooooold postcards. I still can't find my very first card with the kitten on it but I found ones I have that were probably my second and third and the like! So I am very happy. I also found some cards given to family members many years ago and even a card, more of a greeting card type post card, from 1911! 100 years old. Lastly I found some cards from the 1960s of my area where I live which is neat, to track the changes in roads and buildings and landscaping. It's so exciting to hold history in your hands. The cards are from around the USA, mostly California, and a few from Australia and Canada. Oh and I have a duplicate or two which I will post in case any one wants one. They're not in perfect condition as they were stored in a dusty attic inside a plastic lunchbox but they're in decent shape.

I've still yet to catalog them or find a storage place better than a lunchbox, and I've just glanced through them but many are from 1930-1970 which is so cool, retro.
