A huge mountain of post cards =)

Here's some post cards I have received during last weeks, not all, I'll scan those later. Thanks for all great sender!!!


Church tag (Clover, USA) showing Washington National Cathedral ans Saint Mary's Chapel. At the lesft of the sanctuary is dominated by the poychromed wood reredos carved by Ernest Pelligrini. I like this very peaceful chapel.

Some Christmas spirit to summer heats: Christmas tag from imelda, USA. She told she has started her X-mas shopping! Actually I bought some seasong wrapping papers and ribbons from summer sale =)








Very cool Car tag (Sandwood, Austria, she is known her beautiful handwriting!), it's Salvador Dali's Clothed Automobile, 1941. The stamp is a brand new "legends of Formula I", thank you so much!





BKLVRINVA, USA, sent this lovely coloures Lighthouse tag: Pigeon Pint Ligthouse, California. The point itself was actually named for an earlier shipwreck, that of the Carrier Pigeon in 1853. After three more wrecks in the 1860s', the San Mateo County Cazette wrote: "No other one place on the Pacific Coast has proved so fatal to navigators as this locality... all of the vessels that have been lost in the vicinity of Pigeon Point have been lost in consequence of dense fogs which prevented the land from being sighted until the vessels were among the breakers." First lit in 1872, the lighthouse prevented many disasters, but not all. Seen here in 1934.





Thank You card from Laetita, France; the card is from St Tropez and I really like the view and stamp, too! Merci beaucoup!




Horse TAG from annika03, Finland with matching stamp! Someday I'll start to ride again...






Pig TAG (Moon, USA). Piggin' out and bacon in the sun, and thinking of you... pretty in pink!

Private swap from Arjanne, The Netherlands; thank You for this seal with bushy whiskers =)

Great looking butterfly TAG (Britlyn51, USA). " Polyphemus Moth: This nocturnal moth is one of Kansas' largest amd most beautiful. Although resting here on redbud blossoms, the adult moth does not feed, existing solely for the purpose of mating and egg laying. The adult moths found in the spring, live less than two weeks." So sad...










I request TAG from Susan, New Zealand. Baby seals are allways cute, thank You!









From dear meeerisusi (Germany), once again, a lovely I request TAG. The seal is taking a nap with a big smile on his/her face =)


NL-9775 from Catharina, The Netherlands, beautiful red cat with cool stamp € 0,39!
