Show Me Where You Live Swap
 For one swap on Swap-bot, we were to create a postcard showing any part of our home.  This is the first card I received.

Garden Valley Idaho

Garden Valley Idaho
 My lovely friend Linda delivers once again!
 One of the best weekends we had last summer was in a cabin right on the Payette River.  The lady who gave me this card married one of my other friends' dad who happens to own that cabin!  Small, wonderful world!

Cadillac Ranch

Cadillac Ranch

Standing along Route 66 west of Amarillo, Texas, Cadillac Ranch was invented and built by a group of art-hippies imported from San Francisco. They called themselves The Ant Farm, and their silent partner was Amarillo billionaire Stanley Marsh 3. He wanted a piece of public art that would baffle the locals, and the hippies came up with a tribute to the evolution of the Cadillac tail fin. Ten Caddies were driven into one of Stanley Marsh 3's fields, then half-buried, nose-down, in the dirt (supposedly at the same angle as the Great Pyramid of Giza). They faced west in a line, from the 1949 Club Sedan to the 1963 Sedan de Ville, their tail fins held high for all to see on the empty Texas panhandle.

HAPPY NATIONAL POSTCARD WEEK!!!
My lovely friend Jenn, painted this beauty for me.  I think it would make a great postcard!  While painting she said that she could hear that dude from PBS with the soft brush painting happy trees.
