Ok, I guess the replies are going out Tuesday. I didn't know that Monday was a postal holiday.

In a rush, I didn't even see your reply. Mine wasn't an attempt to make you aware of Federal holidays coming up!

 

Half the holidays, I check my mailbox and wonder why I didn't get any mail. rolleyes.gif

Returned, yesterday, from a week long visit to the in-laws in Missouri. Little or no internet access. No FPs with me. Did use BPs to send cards out to some so I wouldn't get too far behind. Found wonderul cards from elena, jazztonight and FredRydr. Thanks. Will be getting back to my regularly scheduled card swaps. Cards going out in the morning to Con and penburg.

Now typically I dont like to say whom I've sent cards out to because I like the element of surprise, but in this case.....

 

One sent to Pauldavid today :)

 

My very first card out to Malaysia.....

It is rather poor of me to lose track, I know, but do I owe anyone a card? I *think* I'm caught up.

Got one from alibaba last night. Hurricanes eh? ;-) I watched the Sharks for about a season or so in the late 80's. I'll write up a reply as soon as time permits.

4 cards sent today. Anyone has gotten any from me lately?

The voice of this guitar of mine, at the awakening of the morning, wants to sing its joy;

I sing to your volcanoes, to your meadows and flowers, that are like mementos of the greatest of my loves;

If I am to die away from you, may they say I am sleeping, and bring me back home.

This can be a dilemma, but I've learned not to worry too much about it. My swap list is over 100, but many have stopped while there is a core group that keeps going on. And there are a handful who send the most wonderful cards.

 

I digress....

 

So, I've not followed who has stopped responding even though my cards keep going out, and the reverse is also true where I may have not mailed a card in a while. Apologies to anyone who feels they are owed a card.

 

Perhaps it's time for some new swapping pals and to tighten up the list. If you like vintage and "previously mailed" cards, PM me.

 

Fred

 

PS Steve, that was a cool vintage folding card! Two stamps; you are too generous to the USPS!

Cards received from tr3n1ty and alibaba. I am a bit behind but need to send one out to Sam in the Philippines and Okami as soon as I get a chance (apologies for the delay but work has taken over my life recently).

 

Anyone else want to receive a postcard from London, Canada, just let me know!

It's no big deal. It's just if I had known, I wouldn't have dropped off my mail in an outside box. It's been very wet here, so the postcards I sent probably got pretty damp. :(

I am almost out of postcards so am going to have to shop for them or make my own.
