When I was young, when I went away, I always sent post cards to a dozen or so of my friends back home. None of my other friends did that; just me. <br /><br />I don't collect post cards, but I do collect QSL cards. That's what amateur radio operators all around the world exchange after they've spoken on the radio. If you'd like a postcard from my neck of the woods, (Georgia, USA) just send me an email (you can find an "email me" button on the sidebar of my blog) with your address, and I'd be happy to send you one.Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4411459508557383279.post-74126386477558429552013-02-15T13:24:38.253+01:002013-02-15T13:24:38.253+01:00that was a treasure huntthat was a treasure huntdeepshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15296902414799985603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4411459508557383279.post-11731796106141806462013-02-14T23:53:35.827+01:002013-02-14T23:53:35.827+01:00Beautiful post cards, Loree!

I found a diary of my mother's once...it gave me such insight into her way of thinking and what was exciting to her at the time. Today, with all of the electronic chat, the next generation will just about have every detail of our lives! Ha!
