I send them just for fun and to stay in touch. I used to buy them in bulk.<BR/><BR/>We just moved to Kansas. I haven’t seen any scenic postcards yet, but I did mail everyone a change-of-address card :-)<BR/><BR/>NadjaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-17738872262573601812008-08-19T13:42:00.000-04:002008-08-19T13:42:00.000-04:00Thanks, Mike!

I like to receive postcards, though, and prop them up on the mantle for awhile to look at. I tend to not throw things away, so I still have old postcards stashed various places, although I've never actually "collected" postcards. Rather than place mementos, the postcards tend to be with other things (letters, cards, etc.) from particular friends.<BR/><BR/>What I do collect are refrigerator magnets from places I've been -- they're small and cheap and easy to display.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-20338781912046098832008-08-19T08:40:00.000-04:002008-08-19T08:40:00.000-04:00Mike, I'm not a postcard junkie, but I do remembe...Mike, I'm not a postcard junkie, but I do remember the first and second postcards I ever sent. One was from boyscout camp to my parents. I think they made us do it.<BR/><BR/>The next one, oddly enough, was from Hawaii, while on my honeymoon. It was also sent to my parents. It's almost exactly 31 years later and I still remember the picture of Hanauma Bay Beach Park.Wilfred Bereswillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03019217952304685255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-17034670326654129252008-08-19T08:21:00.000-04:002008-08-19T08:21:00.000-04:00I used to collect (and send) postcards.

An exaggeration, perhaps. But the darned things are sloooowww. So now, like Joyce, I tend to do the digital postcard version.<BR/><BR/>Have a great trip, Mike. Stay dry.

Now I don't go any place really worth sending them from. (Sigh.)<BR/><BR/>I remember sending some Hawaiian postcards with a joke. "What do you call a surfer without a girlfriend?"
