Catching up on some previously received cards. I had this one scanned but never posted it here.

I'd tell you what the buildings are but my German is very rusty! My daughter couldn't help me either!

Katowice, Poland

The sender says that this is one of the biggest cities in Poland.
My grandfather's family is from Poland so it's always fun to receive a card from there!

I'm back!

I came across a Sandy, the Armchair Traveller's blog today. She is travelling around the world in 80 days via her postcard collection. It got me thinking and I decided I wanted to start sharing my postcard travels again.

Now I don't have nearly as many cards as she does and I'll be posting them as I receive them for the most part so we might be haphazardly traveling the globe but it will be fun! I also plan to go back and scan the ones I missed in the past year......not many because I don't always do a ton of trading, but I want to have an online record of them all.

I will also go back and scan a bunch of cards that I have from my high school days when I first started collecting for a bit. I also have some from before that that my family had and I found in a pile of old pictures I got from my grandmother's house when she passed away.

So buckle up, let's start travelling again!

Route 66

Another from the state map Round Robin. I'd love to take a drive on Route 66 someday!

Indiana

Another map card, this one from Indiana!

Montana, The Treasure State

State map of Montana. Received in a US State map Round Robin.

Nashville, Tennessee

Received last month in the State Capitol Round Robin.

Hope everyone is enjoying their Valentine's Day!!

Arknsas and Massachusetts

Here are a couple more state capitols I've received from a Round Robin.

The first is Arkansas, I like the close up of the rose with the Capitol in the background. And the second being Massachusetts. I'm originally from there so that was fun to get that card.

Salem, Oregon

Right now I'm doing a US State Capitol and a US State Map Round Robin. Here is the first I had received of the Capitols. I've got more to scan, hopefully over the next couple days since I don't work.

Tokyo, Japan

I got this great night scene of Tokyo from a private swap I did in December with someone living there.

Frankfurt, Germany

Did a swap with a girl from Germany and got this card of Frankfurt. Another country on my list that I'd love to visit someday if I ever get the chance.
