I sent three pieces of mail today!

sent 2 post crossing cards to Germany & Russia. Not very productive yet but better than yesterday 🙂
a post crossing card to Finland 🙂
Yesterday was the final day of LetterMo. I had hoped to send a lot more for the grand finale, but life got in the way. I did manage to get out two pieces of mail:
Wow, the Month of Letters challenge is almost over for 2020!
I meant to mail some actual penpal-type letters on Friday, February 28, but we had some drama at home concerning my son’s desperate rush to complete an English assignment that absolutely, positively had to get submitted online to the teacher — and that required a lot of parental hand-holding and I.T. support.
But I did manage, somehow, to mail three Postcrossing postcards nonetheless.
To Istanbul, Turkey: a very cool card I bought from fabric artist Jamie Langhoff, showing an appliqued and embroidered scene of the Washington Monument with Fourth of July fireworks blossoming in the night sky around it. (For some reason this photo did not copy to this page with the others; but you can see it on my blog post here):
To Rehovot, Israel: a photo of a red, beaded, and fur-lined early 20th century dress made of caribou hide, wool, and shells. The dress is an artifact from one of the Alaskan Indian cultures.
To Minsk, Belarus: a night scene in New York City, showing Midtown Manhattan skyscrapers in a gorgeous blue light.
Two outgoing letters today:
Only two more days!
Here is my blog post about today’s outgoing mail:
Yesterday was Wednesday, February 26. As the Month of Letters winds down, I am still doing my best to mail something every day. Or four somethings, three of which were Postcrossing cards :
And I posted them from a mailbox in my neighborhood that I had never noticed before.
