Received the RR5 in mail yesterday. Took all ten cards and replaced them with new. RR5 back in mail this morning to Christine.
Instructions and labels easy, and the postcards were from an area that I was in need.
This is fun!
Bob :p

Good! I'm glad you received them Bob. I haven't heard from Jennifer yet for the other Round Robin. I'm glad the postcards were what you needed - I really do love trading cards this way - it gives you more of a variety to choose from.

I tried to make it as easy as possible with the intructions and the labels, but it seems that some are still having a bit of a problem - like Jennifer. Hopefully it's just something simple.

Hope everyone else enjoys the Robin - please keep posting so we can keep this robin on track. Thanks!

Hi all LH lovers,
Eagerly awaiting participation in RR#5
JoAnn

Chris should be receiving the robin any day now - due to Monday being a USPS holiday, I'm sure that it was delayed a bit. Chris, please let us know when you receive it. Thanks!

since I haven't seen anything posted recently for RR#5 was wondering where is it???
JoAnn

Received the cards today !!(Remember Murphy mail is usually 2x everybody elses in timing!) They will return to the mail tomorrow (10/22)!! going to Stephen.

I'm glad to hear that you received the Robin George. I guess Christine is probably one of the many "guests" that we have and was unable to post the receipt/sending of the robin. I'm glad that it was sent on.

Please remember everyone - please post when you receive the robin and when you send it. If you are not a forum member, you can email me that you received it and are sending it and I will post it for you. Thank you!

I hope the robin keeps going strong and that everyone gets a bunch of cards they need. By the way, if anyone has any postcards of Alcatraz Lighthouse, CA, I would greatly appreciate them. As with every lighthouse lover that has ONE Lighthouse they would LOVE to visit if they could pick from any in the world - Alcatraz is mine.

BonnieJean,

Chris is a regular participating member of the forums.

How badly do you want an Alcatraz card????????

Dave

Okay, if Chris is a regular forum member, then she either forgot to post the receiving of the robin or was unable to post. Either way, I'm glad that George got the robin and everything is going well with this robin. I was starting to get worried about it, as was Bob S. that doesn't seem to have very good luck with these things (Round Robin #2).

Okay, what do you mean by "how badly do you want an Alcatraz card?" Are we talking money, favors , or postcards in exchange of? I would rather personally visit the lighthouse, but until I can, I will have to settle for the postcards. If any of you have one, I would be willing to trade more valuable postcards for it. I have a postcard that is a black & white sketch of Port Boca Grande that cost me a bit more than the usual postcards. Anyone interested?

Got Round Robin #5 yesterday, and sent it out today!

Sorry I didn't post, George! I forgot to do it because I was running a day behind in sending them out. I'll make sure to do it again.

WHere is 5-1???

Haven't received #5 Yet.

Received #5-1 in Mobile, AL yesterday will be out and on its way again tomorrow.

Stephanie

OK folks it's time for a VOTE !

I have already received and mailed out this round of the RR#5, however you may (or) may not want to vote me out of all future mailings. I would like to stay in, but it's up to you all.

Here's the situation: As of January 5, I will going up to Georgia to work a construction job. I will be there for an estimated 6 months, working 7-10's. I will be taking my computer with me, but wont have much time to be on it. May check and post to the Forum only once a week.

Now for the real problem: I will be having my mail forwarded to me in GA! This will mean a delay in my receiving the Round Robins. My address will remain the same. My mail will be collected and forwarded to me in bulk once a week. Depending on when the RR arrives at my mail box it could be as much as two weeks before I actually get it in my hands.

I have lots of postcards ready to exchange, and will take them to GA with me, so I can get it back out and on it's way the next day after receiving it. But are you all willing to wait the week or maybe two for the forwarding? That is the question! You vote and I will except your answer!

Stephanie

Stephanie- I for one have no problem with it! I vote you stay.

Thanks Jakers!

That's 1 out of 7, how do the rest of you feel?

Stephanie

thumbs up here, Stephanie! I think the lack of response is positive one.
Bob

Stephanie,
Please stay in the Round Robin!

RR5-1 flew in yesterday, Christmas Eve and left with
Santa the same day
Steph stay

Steph, if you give me the address of where you are staying we will just mail the round robin directly to where you are and we won't have to worry about any delay or possible problems with you receiving your postcards. Just make sure you bring lots of postcards with ya - don't want you to run out while you're out of town.

Got the Robin Saturday, out to Tom and Joyce on today with some recent west coast pcs.
Bob

Shortcake, I vote you stay in what's a few extra days over many months time. We need to keep our members!!

Thank You all, for your understanding!

I will look forward to many more rounds of the Round Robin. I have some good cards to add and can't wait to see what's coming my way in the future!

BonnieJean thank you for starting these Round Robins, we are all enjoying them!

Stephanie

Received the Robin today. Should have it back in the mail to BonnieJean Monday.

Hello my dear Lighthouse Friends! I have received the Round Robin (days ago), but am just now getting around to getting into it. Everything was fine yet again. I have changed the mailing order - it will be as follows:

Round Robin #5-2

1) Christine Grass - Florissant, MO
2) RScroope - Mount Sinai, NY
3) JoAnn - Astoria, OR
4) Shortcake - Mobile, AL
5) Tom & Joyce Abbott - Desoto, TX
6) Pharologst - Murphy, NC
7) Jake - Highland, IN
8) Me - Brooksville, FL

As always, please post here when you receive/send the round robin. I hope you all enjoy another year of exchanging postcards.

Received the 'Robin' from Christine, and it will be on the way to JoAnn tomorrow.

The RR flew in on Tues.& flew out on Thurs.
JoAnn

Anything happening since the 7th?? :rolleyes:

Nothing received in Desoto yet. I believe Stephanie's mail is being forwarded once a week to her temporary job in Georgia. This could account for the delay.

The Round Robin landed in Desoto today. Lot's of great postcards. Will have it back in the mail on Monday.

George, Round Robin #5 is on it's way to you. Replaced 4 postcards.

Received RR#5-2 today and on it's way today!!!!

Belated Post:

Sorry folks, yes the delay in this RR was my fault. Without going into details, there was a mix up in my mail being forwarded. But be assured this should not happen again!

Again, I am sorry for the delay, and am glad to see it now running smoothly once more.

Shortcake

OK, I now have RR 5 here in Indiana. It should be going out by Friday!

Anybody heard from BonnieJean??? A few of us have sent emails with no responses.

George, Bonnie Jean posted twice today at 3am about some lighthousing. She said she check in again to explain her absense.
Bob

Sorry everyone for the delay in getting the Round Robins back out. I received them all, but have been out of state and way from my beloved computer and internet. In my adventures though I have picked up some GREAT Southeast Michigan Lighthouse Postcards. I have filled the Round Robins with cards I have purchased in my travels. The Round Robin will go out in tomorrow's mail and is as follows:

Round Robin #5-3

1) Tom & Joyce Abbott - Desoto, TX
2) Shortcake - Mobile, AL
3) Jake - Highland, IN
4) RScroope - Mount Sinai, NY
5) Pharologst - Murphy, NC
6) JoAnn - Astoria, OR
7) Christine Grass - Florissant, MO
8) Me - Brooksville, FL

As always, please post here when you receive/send the round robin. Thank you for your patience in my delay. I promise this won't happen again (at least not for a while )

WELCOME BACK BONNIEJEAN !!

Thank you George! I'm happy to be back - I missed you all soooooooo much!!!!!!!!

It's about time you came HOME, BonnieJean

Glad to have you back!

Shortcake

Glad to be back - both here in the Forums and here in the Heat! Sure have missed all of you - I still promise to write about my adventures.

Welcome back BonnieJean. Round Robin has arrived in Desoto. Should have it back in the mail on Monday.

Round Robin #5 was sent out 4/14/03 to Stephanie. Sure hope it wasn't caught up in the IRS mail. Does anyone know if Stephanie is still having her mail forwarded?

?????? Wo ist Das PE??

Round Robin arrived here in GA yesterday and went back out with the mailman today!

Had some great cards in it!

Shortcake

Is the USPS just slow??

Really slow or lost? Took three weeks from Texas to Stephanie in Alabama. Stephanie is having her mail forwarded to Georgia so it takes a little longer. But now it been over two weeks since it was sent from Georgia to Indiana. Maybe the Robin's wings are getting tired.

As this thread is over the 50 post limit, I have continued it here .
