PCE #19 Mailings & Receipts

All of my cards are going out in the mail today. Everyone gets the same card.

It is getting to be a challenge to find cards that haven't already been sent. I have been in most of the PCE's and I don't have this card so I hope it is a new one for most of you.

Mine also on way.

Charles

On the way,Charles? I received it yesterday! Did you personally deliver it in my mailbox? lol Great LI card, thanks,
Bob

I received Charles' card today too. Very nice!

Me too, Charles' card was waiting for me tonight when I got home from the Hudson River! Thanks!

In 14 hundred and 92, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.

No mail pick-up tomorrow, it's true,

But my cards are ready to ship to you.

(And everyone gets the same card from Sue. )

I have not received any cards yet .... the mail must be slow in Meeeechegan.

The cards I'm mailing out are stamped and addressed and will be dropped into the mail tomorrow. Everyone will get the same card ... I picked them up at the Great Lakes Lighthouse Festival in Alpena.

Status Report:

Received Lorie's and Charles' cards in the mail today. Already had the one Charles sent out .... must have picked it up on LI. Lorie's card is new to the collection.

Thanks, Dan

When our mail finally arrived today at 4:45pm it was all trash, except for Lorie's card!!! Thanks, I didn't have that one. We saw that light in the fall of '01.

My cards went out in today's mail. I include a URL for a bonus treat and am having problems making that work.

Be patient; I'll add a post here when I'm back in town and it works.

Still nothing from Charles, but did get Dan's (Elmer) entry, a first for this light. Also got John's very unique and pretty card today.

I received 2 cards in the mail today. Both new cards! Thanks to Sue and John.

That was a pretty quick trip to Utah Lorie!

I also received cards from John and Elmer Dan today, both great cards! Thanks.

4 cards so far and none have been scraped by the USPS. They've arrived in near pristine condition.

Wow, the cards are already arriving! I'm still trying to find a different set of cards that no one had already sent out.

I was pleasantly surprised with your card, JC. I've never received a card that deviated from the typical rectangular shape. Excellent choice for a different style card.

Bob

Three have found their way to NY. Charles's somewhat local to me lighthouse. Sue's which we visited several years ago but didn't have a postcard of and Elmer's (Dan) arrives today. Love getting those Graet Lakes cards. Maybe someday I'll see them in person. Still no 'unique' shaped card from JC.

Better get mine in the works!
Donna

I got Sue's and JC's cards .... very nice and didn't have cards for either light. Thanks,

Dan

I've received 4 cards so far and all have been new additions to my collection. I'm working now on mine so hopefully in the next day or 2 I will be able to send them out.

I came back from a meeting in San Francisco to find 3 postcards waiting for me. You guys did a good job covering the regions...an east coast one from Sue, a Great Lakes one from Dan, and a west coast one from John. All great cards...and new ones for me!

I received Dan's card today. Thanks!

Shortcake's cared arrived today, thanks Steph!

Steph's card also made it to Indiana. Yhanks, another new one.

I guess it's too late to say I mailed my cards!!!!!!! Sorry, I've been without Internet again! Just had the phone line turned on today.

I did get my first mailing package yesterday and in it wore two cards. One from Charles and one from Lorie. Thanks!

Stephanie

I received Stephanie's card too...another new one for me

Steph's card arrived. Already had it ... picked it up last year on a visit to Tybee and St. Simon's.

Dan

I received a nice card from Shirin today. I've seen the light a couple of times. I would still like to get back there and stay longer than a day each time.

Some body sent me a very nice card today! It was Shirin, thanks!

I got Shirin's card too .... had one card of the light but not that particular postcard. Very Nice.

Thanx, Dan

Just updateing for the cards that I had gotten in my last package. Mombo, John, Elmer, and Shirin.

Next mail package should arrive Monday or Tue. looking farward to more then.

Stephanie

PS
one thing I noticed: Mombo is the only one who put the PCE 19 on thier card. This is something that we all need to do! Althought I can't realy remember if I did or not. :rolleyes:

Got a great new card from Carol Z. today - 2 LH plus a LSS. What a deal!

I received Carol's card today also, thanks!

Nice card Carol! It makes a nice addition to my collection.

I haven't forgot you guys, I still need to msend mine out, but I need to acquire a few more cards during one of the trips this month. Hopefully they'll go out by the 1st of Dec.

Nice card. Thanks Carol

Dan

Glad everone liked my card. The LSS shouldn't be missed if you get down to Virginia Beach.
My collection of cards is growing as well. Thanks Shirin, Mombo, John and Elmer.

I'm not a part of this exchange... but have to jump in and ditto something.

The LSS on the boardwalk at Virginia Beach is a wonderful exhibit and do check it out if you come that way.

Also on the Outer Banks, the Chicamacomico Historical society has done a fantastic job with the buildings they have. That LSS is located in Rodanthe.

Added bonus...both have great gift shops!

Judy

These are the cards that we have received in this exchange.

Owls Head Light from Sue
Virginia Beach from Carol Z
Bodie Island Light from Shirin
Cockspur Island Lighthouse from Stephanie
Little Gull Island Lighthouse from Charles B
Lynde Point Light from Lorie
Middle Island Lighthouse from Dan and Carol
Umpqua River Lighthouse w/lens from John C

Ours are going out tomorrow. We tried to do something different with our cards. We hope you like them.

Mary and Jeff

Received Jeff & Mary's card today - gee the image looks familiar. . . . . . Liked the card, definitely one you won't have in your collection!

Nice job Mary and Jeff! I received your unique card on Wednesday. Thanks!

Hi Everyone, Just wanted to let you know my cards are going in the mail today. Please excuse the handwriting as I did them in the car on the way home from Michigan City. Enjoy.
Judy

Cards in mail today. All the Same.
I hope this one is different?
Thanks to all for your great cards,
Bob

So how did that go, Judy? Smack Roy, write a card; smack Roy, write a card. . . . . . . .

No Dave, I only flicked Roy once, Carolyn took care of the rest. But the truck kept swaying from the wind.

My contribution to this exchange may arrive beyond the deadline of the end of this month. I'm still looking for a card everyone hasn't received as of yet, and that isn't easy to find. I also figure it's getting too close to Christmas to be mailing postcards which may get lost in the Christmas rush of mail. I'll let you guys know when they are mailed.

Bob

Bob, I like your idea about avoiding the holiday mail rush. I do have my cards for this exchange but I too, think that they have a better chance of arriving after Christmas.

Even in normally slower mail times the cards can take over a week to arrive. John's card in this exchange took over a week from Arizona to New York.

Actually the week bettwen Christmas & New Years might be OK but I'll post when I mail.

Donna

Our cards went in the mail yesterday. Hopefully they won't get lost in the holiday mail rush. Everybody gets the same card.

I'm late in reporting, but we did get Jeff and Mary's card ..... very nice job in making this unique card.

Dan

Got judy's card today. Her above post explains why a short note . . . . actually very legible for being written in a moving vehicle.

Received Judy's card yesterday ..... didn't have that particular card of the light.

Received Tom & Joyce's card today .... did not have ..... very nice .... THANX

Dan

Received Tom & Joyce's card today. Great pic, statement on the back is correct. . . . it WILL happen.

Judy's card arrived here today and it was perfectly legible! Very nice, thanks!

Received my mail package today! And man was it FULL!

One PCE#19 (from Jeff & Mary), two Christmas Cards, three PCE#18 , one Round Robin, a nice letter from John Gaskill, and one PCE#14 (thanks Ron). And we won't talk about all the bills that wore in it too!

Stephanie

Received card from LI Bob today.

Bob's card arrived here today also, a nice 4 parter, thanks!
