Hey! I'm sure I have that very postcard in a box of college stuff! I'd almost forgot about that!

I miss seeing Granddad's Bluff, and the riverfront, not college (in fact, I have recurring nightmares that I haven't finished school

, but I can't afford your $300 fee for analyzing that one for me!

) but everything else about beautiful LaCrosse brings happy memories. We've already discussed the eateries!

(You didn't report me to the authorities about the scrubs, did you? I'm sure they are still wondering what happened to them!)

By the way, 18th is my son Zack's 21st birthday!!

Nothing boring about Virginia!
I am finding out that quite a few MR's will be celebrating someone's birthday that day!
From one current Illinoisian to a former one, Thanks so much!

I just wanted to confirm that I fixed the PM-ing problem!

I've received so many wonderful responses! Just today she was asking if there was anything in the mail for her. I just had warm fuzzys on the inside just knowing what I know

and what she doesn't yet!

rebarnmom: You might want to look into Postcrossing. In addition to sending postcards and receiving them -- you have to send a card to get a card -- the site has cool maps showing where your cards have gone & where you've gotten cards from. And other geography stuff. Such as: " Andorra is a country in Europe with a population of 72,000 habitants." -- there are 2 members of the Postcrossing site from Andorra. I'm "Elsi" over there as well as here.

That looks like a great site. I bookmarked it to study it further. I know some other homeschooling moms that would also find that interesting! Thanks for the link!

Bump!

I quite agree. This is terribly important to me and I didn't want my thread to get buried. Please forgive me for shamelessly begging

You have to PM me to ask and I'll PM you back! Shall I?

Oh and I fixed my original post, so it would be more visible. (Hope that helps!)

HarryT · 06-20-2009, 02:12 PM

If you'd like to PM me your address, I'll be more than happy to send your daughter a postcard.

Right now her favorite show is Wipeout! In the fall it will be Heroes. I'm afraid that she's never been a Hannah Montana fan, probably because we don't get cable, only network and PBS channels. When she's at G&G's (grandma & grandpa's), it all Animal Planet and Food Network shows for her!

Oh! and consider yourself PM'd! Thanks so much!

Stamps I have a lot of, even some postcards. I need to clean out a bunch of stuff here so PM me the address and I will get the USPS working.
