Me too! Sorry it took so long, but I had to make a special trip for them. Everything’s filled out now and I’ll be sending it out tomorrow morning. Round 2 por favor.

Okay - I’ll start working on the Round 2 list (smaje1 - yes, I accidentally left you off the list here, but you were in my spreadsheet.)

Please do not request to be in round 2 until you have successfully mailed your postcards for round 1 (not mentioning any names, **dhkendall** ).

I’m in the process of moving in mid-March, so please forgive me if I’m a little distracted. I love this project so never fear, I’m on it!

Mines are going out today. You would not believe how many stores I had to visit to get New Jersey postcards. Everything here is New York.

I don’t know about y’all - but once I found a place that sold local postcards, I bought like 30 of them . . .
