Postcard Swap

[ShadowWriter]

Wonderful card received from you today, PaulK. So fast!

 

My “incoming” mail is now processed 2 counties away and as a few members on FPN can confirm, it takes longer for me to receive my mail than it once did. You must know people in high places at the Postal Service!

Received a fisherman comic card from tr3n1ty and a Palo Alto Cafe card from jleeper. Its so pleasant having your postcards in my mailbox instead of just bills and adverts.

 

Sent five out today. Jazztonight, inkypete, PaulK, waisun, and tr3n1ty should receive them within two weeks. Hopefully !

I have been out of the loop for a while, and have a shockingly large stack of postcards that has arrived over the past two months, and I wanted to acknowledge their receipt due to the long delay. As I am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel, replies will begin trickling back out shortly. (Bit of family crisis.) Thank you for your patience and understanding. I am very aware there are a large number of names that appear in this list more than once, and am deeply embarrased.

 

Postdated starting around July 8th with the last mailed September 22nd and arriving yesterday.... Toaster Pastry, Greg, ofpwriter (great photo btw), Raiche58, Andy, Rolard, DJMort, Red Dwarf, sdcurnow, Firefyter-EMT, Fredrydr, Robert S (from San Fran), orangesam, inkypete, Craig R, Okami, Vladimir from Moscow, Tawanda (you made me wish I had picked up the Diamine Damson that I put down now), PenHorse87, Raiche58, Splicer, Firefyter-EMT, Andy VB, Hari317, DJMort, steveh6883, jazztonight, steveh6883, penhorse87 (the seal made it and looked great!), Philip1209, inkypete, CraigR (Sorry about your guideline page ), penburg, eilu, eilu, GreenVelvet, hannah1.

 

To Greenvelvet I apologize profusely, I haven't sent your first card yet... I had something come up.

 

Off to stuff my overdue letter into an envelope and attack the stack

Received two homemade photo cards yesterday, a beautiful covered bridge from Mullsol and a lighthouse sunset on Lake Michigan from Bearcat. Both WOW!

Please, no need! I am agonizingly behind myself now.

You sign up by expressing interest - as you just did. Anyone you see with whom you want to exchange postcards, PM them. Others will do the same. You're likely to get more takers if you fill out your profile a bit.

I'm planning to send this tomorrow to a friend in Graz.

I will be sending out cards tomorrow in reply to the great cards I received over the last week from FredRydr, PaulK, jazztonight, Okami, and hannaahl.

[GreenVelvet]

I felt I'd been neglecting my letters in favor of postcards, so I had to reverse that trend... now my postcards have been languishing a while. My apologies to my postcard swappers... I'll try to catch up over the weekend.

[PaulK]

Hey all....just want to acknowledge receipt of super cards from PMSalty, Penburg, ToasterPastry, IBZ, OrangeSam, Jazztonight and Waisun this week. Vintage cards winging their way in response to all.

 

Wishing all well,

 

Paul

...and I have cards in the mail to all of you. The hardest part of this process is waiting on line at the post office for stamps!

 

I have been experiencing some feathering on some of the cards I've printed. But other than that, the Avery #8387 works okay.

 

Regards,

jazztonight

You can buy stamps online! (I hate waiting in line at the post office, too...)

I've been thinking about that. Thanks for the prompt--I'll do it!

 

(3 minutes later...)

 

I just went to the online store and got this message:

 

"The Postal Store is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause."

 

Hey, it's really just like going to the Post Office.
