That’s Lake Erie, and it’s the Cleveland Browns Stadium: [Huntington Bank Field - Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Browns_Stadium)

They are in the post, all three of them!! As of this morning, cutting it close I know but they are on the way.

I also found all my Christmas cards at the bottom of my bag while looking for stamps. I’ve written Happy Easter on the back of the envelope and sent them too!

Please sign me up for round three!

Thanks to all 3 of you for posting that you received cards - but please, **make sure you tell us who your cards are from** as well!

First, because it’s kinda a pain for me to look up who sent to you (my grid is set up by sender, not recipient) and second, it’s also nice for the senders to see their names in print - so if you have a chance, please make sure to tell me who all 3 cards are from. Thanks!!

Lol - no - I got that one was from her. But you said you have now received all 3 - and I don’t have a record of you reporting the other 2 you received. So I was asking who the other 2 were from.
