Welcome to the August postcard swap! Hope everyone is having a good summer and keeping cool!

I would like to open the August postcard sign-ups. Postcards can be sent from a place you've visited, one you've made, or a card that's inpirational or funny.

Please PM me your address if you'd like to join us. The signups will be open until July 30. I will send out the enitre list on July 31 with groups of 3-4 depending on how many folks sign up. You will mail a card to everyone in your group. If you like, you may send cards to the rest of the group but  you are not obligated to send to everyone on the entire list. 

Postcards can be mailed throughout the month of August. (how can it be almost August already!?) Please post when you send your cards and when you receive cards.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Everyone is welcome to join in the fun!

Mine will go out next week. We're going away this weekend so I want to see if I can pick up a couple more postcards. I'm kind of happy with the ones I have this month. I picked most of them up in antique stores.

Oh, no......I hope my cards get out of Florida before the heavy rains start!  I'm afraid they might get hung up in Jacksonville tomorrow where our regional distro center is.
