Ruth and Barbara, so glad you got the postcards. 

Barbara I got yours today. Thank you! That was a wonderful surprise today.

Cathy, I am so excited you got yours!!

Shirley, I did get your envelope. It was a very lovely surprise. You made my day!! I have been wanting to write back but have not had time yet. I will soon though. You are such an angel, thanks so much.

Shirley, the best place to get postcards to send are in the tourist places. Like little gift shops in the attraction areas.

Bananas..I just lost my post....Cathy E...so glad you got the card...and there are two companies sell post cards off line right now updating their card system...I'll get to it if you can put up with the cards for an bit everyone...esp with the Christmas Season and all.

The tea bag I sent is one of my favorite teas...and by now the store candy should be on sale to make the little Turkey's. I have an much bigger version of an Turkey..... made with fresh veggies, shrimp, meats and bread...looks much harder to do..... Enjoy!

Closest attraction area might sell them would be the "The Grotto" in Portland...they would definately have "angels" there. Sanctuary of our Sorrowful Mother.......it's on-line to look at if you'd like. There's an church there also...but they do the grounds up as an Christmas Fund raiser. I'll keep looking around as I go to different areas. Today I found and huge huge "victorian" house puzzle, put together and glued and

in an picture frame...so Christmassey....I bought it...it's  hanging in my boy's room for now...as it matches well in there. Kind of night painting in ways also...as the evergreen trees around the houses are dark in the background...got it half price...you can't beat that. I love those "Americana" Calendars also. I have an little Christmas Tree

for the room also, but don' t know if I'll put it up or not this year.

Barbara, I just got the lovely card from Albuquerque.  Thanks a million, and I'm happy to have you as my POE friend too.  The church is simply gorgeous.

You're quite welcome, Cathy and Ruth.  I adore New Mexico!  It's great to go back to visit a place you haven't been to for 20 years and find that you still feel comfortable and right at home there.

Thanks for the card Barabara....I worked with an gal from the area at

one time..she's the one taught me how to cure "mirgraines" without

medications. Been to many years ago now though...at least about

40 years or more...but I never forgot the technique.

I image it would cost more Shirley.  As far as I can tell you need to send them airmail post which I know costs more from here, but not sure what the situation is in the USA. 

Barbara I received your postcard today.  Wow!! yipee!! Thank you so much.
