World Postcard Day

 Today is World Postcard Day and I had arrangements to meet someone in the parking lot of the CoOp and we would both write postcards.  She was going to be there at 9 and I slept until 8:30, so I rushed around to get things together and get down to the CoOp.  At first it was just the two of us.

It was fun talking to both of the other women about our experience with Postcrossing.  All three of us get a lot of mail going to and coming from Germany, but two of us got messages going to Latvia this week, which was unusual.

I was there about an hour and a half, by which time it was starting to get hot and the sun was shining on me.  All three of us were ready to go home, so we mailed our postcards and said goodbye to each other. 

A nice change from sitting at home all day!
