3 Private Swaps

Today's mail brought 3 privately exchanged cards.

This card came from Ann, in France. Isn't it a gorgeous

picture? I love the wavy wrapping around the

lighthouse! Ann lives part-time in France and

part-time in England. She tells me that her husband

worked 3 years in Paris, and when they returned to

England, they missed the way of life in France. So,

when he retired, they decided to have the best of

both worlds!

Thank you, Ann, for your beautiful card!

This is card #3 (of 6) in my Monday exchanges with Thea,

from Hoorn, Netherlands. I have already received all

the other cards, so this one must have been 'gotten lost'

on its way to Texas! 'Lighthouse Lover' that I am,

this is a perfect choice for me! Thank you, Thea, for

the beautiful card and the nice exchange we have

enjoyed!

This card comes to me from Bruce, in Las Vegas.

He said, 'Don't let the picture fool you; it's not

always the 4th of July here. It just feels that way!'

It's a beautiful card, Bruce, and I thank you for the

opportunity to swap cards with you. I really like

the 'really old' stamps that Bruce put on his card.

You can see them below. They are stamps from

the '50's and 60's. I think that's really neat.

I wonder where you get such old unused stamps.
