I got my second card today from **dbygawdcapn** , it’s a Body Worlds card showing the internal workings of a rabbit. Funky! Just as interesting is the fact that it’s been through the postal service and arrived without a single mark on it. It’s like you walked up the street and put it through the door yourself. How cool is that? ---

Well, I finally managed to get my postcards mailed… less than one hour late, too – if you count the deadline as being midnight of May 31st **EDT** :o **VunderBob** , \*\*TheTerribleTako \*\*and \*\*ScareyFaerie \*\*-- my apologies, your postcards will be late, but they **are** on their way! Oh, and I’ve got one postcard so far, from \*\*Melody \*\*herself! 🙂 ---

Sorry to **Future Londonite** , **dbygawdcapn** , and **FloatyGimpy**. I finally sent out my postcards today. I thought I lost the postcards and I was about to go get some more when I found them under a pile of old paperwork on my desk. I’ll accept my floggings to the right. I also got my first postcard for round 3 today from **Emily Litella**. Hee, I love the quip on how “the air is brown and the rivers are green.” Thank you very much, **Emily**! ---

Received today an amazing postcard of the Topiary Garden in Deaf School Park from **gardentraveler**. I had to read the postcard text and look at the photo over and over. I’ll have to look further into this and maybe visit with my family - very cool, and only three hours from my home! Thank you so much! On another note, the stamp was also beautiful. ---
