Three Today

It's a cold, windy, snowy day here in Ohio.  I put my cards out in the mailbox for the mail lady to pick up and mail this morning.  When I got to the house I looked back and the mailbox had blown open by the wind and I panicked!  My cards!!  I rushed back and one was gone.  Blown down the road, wet and muddy.  Oh well.  At least I didn't lose them all!

From China, CN-835895... The Northern New City.  This is the first card I've ever received, and I've received at least a couple thousand, where there was no writing at all other than my address.  Just a great big blank space.  Maybe the sender forgot?  I know not everyone can speak or write English either.  But EVERYONE can draw!  A happy face, sad face, stick figure, the Mona Lisa?  LOL!  It's all right, I'll survive... somehow.  Still a pretty cool card!



Another first - but for the sender!  I am honored to be the first card they have every sent through Postcrossing!  Wonderful!  Exciting!  It's a beautiful art card from Spain (ES-202672).  
"Las meninas" by Velazquez
I really dig that crazy stamp too!  Cool.



Here is DK-25933 sent from Denmark.  I love this.

Cute bear birthday card from the Ukraine (UA-461595)



I received these next ones today...

Wonderful card from Finland (FI-1663839)
"Juhlasoitto" by Raija Nokkala



The first card is not mine - I just scanned it because I loved it - of course, a polar bear!  :o)  What it is:  A traveler postcard project from the sender.  It is making its way around the world and my little town in Ohio was its first stop of 15.  I'll be sending it along to the next destination on Monday.  I so hope it finds its way back to Vlad in Russia!  I pray it does!  
The brown bear swimming is my card from Vlad.  (RU-1490545)




Ciao for Now!
