PCE 26 - IN ENVELOPE - Part 2

Continued from Part 1

Suzanne and Ed. I got your returned today, and resent.
Bob

OOPS, I added this as a new topic so am putting it here too.

Still new at this.

I'm still not back home yet so must wait till mid October to see just what cards are in my box.

The card I sent is of course from the far west and I hope to get to the Portland East before returning.

The Portland Head cards are probably too common so won't get any there. But I'll look for some more unusual cards along the way.

Hyper BOB

I deleted the other posting - Dave

My postcards will be going out in the mail on Monday. Everyone gets the same card.

The envelopes to Germany and England won't be going out yet, I bought airmail postcard stamps for the other exchange, but forgot to get airmail stamps for the in envelope exchange. I hope to stop at the post office this week and get those stamps.

I received the letter of Bob S. last week - thank you very much for this wonderful postcard. It is the perfect combination - a little bit old fashioned and also modern - thanks a lot Bob, I like this card very much.

Man oh Man, was my mail package full this week!
Lots of Lighthouse Postcards!!!

Received cards This week from; Stan & Margret (very informative write-up encluded), Bob Scroope, and Steve.

Last week received cards from Bill Edwards, Iris and Bob Knight.

Thank You all!

Received Suzanne's very nice card and letter today. One of my more favored lighthouses. Lots of good stuff again this round!

Thanks to Bob S. who's card arrived some time ago and to Suzanne who's arrived today. Nice photos Suzanne! Both great additions!

Suzanne's arrived here yesterday. Very nice jumbo card & photo essay. Thanks
Charles

Suzanne's Letter with the great card of Whitefish Point arrived safely today!
Thank you Suzanne!!!

Thank you to Suzanne who´s card arrived in Germany today - beautiful card and wonderful photos - thank you Suzanne.

I mailed those to Europe on Saturday. You get mail from me faster than the East Coast does!

Must have been a favorable jet stream, Suzanne.

Nobody seems to have posted about receiving Joanie's card. Mine came in late last week while I was up in Alpena. Very cool image on the card.

we too hope our cards have all arrived by now...

I see many have recieved lots of cards.

I just got back and find but 8 cards out of the 19 on the list.

I'm not counting the Youngers since I didn't expect anything from them.

Of course as usual, my european buds were most diligent.

How did others do??

I got 11 cards and 6 envelopes.
Sounds like a real hord ... and to think there are more to come ...
I agree with Iris! This is fun! We enjoyed EVERY card we received. And we hope ours - despite the home made aspect - are also a bit of fun.
Margret

I'm afraid I am one of the guilty parties that has not sent my cards out as yet. I am currently battling Trojan.Vundro on my pc (posting this at work, which I believe was infected via my daugher's participation in "MySpaces.com" and my lack of being fastidious about keeping my anti-virus updated.


I was able to run the Norton Vundro fix, but I still get a popup Norton window that the run was unable to fix Windows/system32/vtsts.dll.
Meanwhile the pc is just barely running. I've been researching some different sites that offer sugguestion, but very well may have to just call in the "Geek Squad".

Melody,
Sorry to hear you have a virus. No need to apologize. This PCE isn't over until November 15th.

Well I've been remiss about thanking Joanie for her offering for this exchange which arrived some time ago. Sorry, the cards were very nice and I do appreciate them.

Lorie, your post-card-letter arrived today! Wow! Thank you so much! Great additions to our collection!

JoanieO ... your letter arrived today ... Thank you very much... The picture of the Bi-Valve lens is something ...

Lorie, thank you for your letter, which came today. I like it very much and hope that you will do much more lighthouse-trips.

JoanieO, I had your letter in my mailbox this morning - thank you very much. I love this postcards, which also show the Fresnel lens of the lighthouse.

As the deadline is fast approaching...I finally have all my letter packets finished and they were sent out yesterday. Everyone will get the same except Stan & Margret and Iris since I already sent theirs.

I'm preparing my packets today. Everyone gets the same card. There is some variation in one of the extras. I'm hoping Randy will take these to the postoffice for me tomorrow. If there's a delay, I'll let you know.

Tammy

p.s. Thanks to everyone who has already sent their cards!

OK. After I got all the letters printed and the packets put together, I realized that I forgot to change the PCE # from 24 to 26 on my letter. My apologies...

Lorie's contribution arrived today. Might get folks to thinking she is feeling guilty about all her travels this year.....

Have received Lorie's very generous contribution to this exchange! Thanks so much!

lorie's super-sized packet arrived here safely. Thanks Lorie

Charles

Tammy's arrived today, another super job, thanks!

How did Sue get Tammy's card before I did? Must have been one the mail delivery technician decided they liked......

Dave your mailman knows how much you complain about the USPS so he held yours back.....

Maybe I shouldn't post this here, but would someone tell me how this works? I would love to join next time. You guys seem to have so much fun!

Okay, I went back to Part 1 to find how it works. I hope I can join next time.

Today we received the letter from Tammy Wolfe. Brilliant! I love the photograph! Thank you very much!

Tammy, I received your letter today - thank you very much. I like the postcard very much, but if I had read your letter, I felt like I had been there too. Lovely story, it must be a real wonderful place...

I have been very remiss about thanking all of you for your lovely postcards, letters and other information about the Lighthouses that you included is this PCE #26. I am overjoyed with all the goodies I have received. I want to thank Bill E, Lorie R, Stan & Margret B, Bob S.,
Steve E, Suzanne M, Tammy W, Iris K, Bob K. Your generosity is very much appreciated.
This is the mail I have received as of Nov. 10th.

Thanks again, y'all.
JoanieO

Thanks Tammy. Your splendid packet was received here.

Charles

Lorie, thanks so much for your contribution. Wow! Was it hard to find those postcards?

Grace, I hope you sign up. Are you considering signing up for the next postcard round robin, too? It would be nice to have another new participant.

Stan & Margaret & Lightship Fan...I'm surprised that my postcard got overseas in less than a week.

Tammy

Ditto to you Tammy. Thanks for the very nice package you sent.

I'm always on the hunt for new postcards when I'm on vacation. Sometimes they are hard to find even though I have everyone with me on the lookout to locate lighthouse postcards.

Finally sent out my cards today. Sorry no fancy enclosures.

Our cards went in the mail today. As in the other exchange, we apologize to all for not acknowledging receipt of all the new cards we’ve received so far. So thank you Iris K., Stan & Margret, Joan O., Lorie R., Bob S., Bill E., Bob K., and Steve E.
We promise to do better in the next exchange.

Hyper-Bob, your letter came today - thank you very much for that "working light". Interesting to see a lighthouse at night. Hope everything is fine with you after "Wilma" has left?

Received from Bob Knight in yesterdays mail. Thanks Bob

Charles

My cards went into the mail this afternoon. Everyone gets the same card.

Still waiting for Tammy's card. Pretty bad when they made it to Europe before here.

Mailed out most of this PCE this morning. Mostly all different.
Also received Sue's card. We must be on the same wavelength Sue. A couple of folks are going to experience some deja-vu. Thanks Sue.

Charles

Received a note from Stephanie (Shortcake) this evening. She wanted everyone to know that she will get cards into the mail as soon as she can get a few spare minutes. Said she is working 84 hours a week as they try to get their construction project finished up!

The way I look at it, this will just provide a card to enjoy during the "lull" between exchanges.

Received Sue's letter today. Thank you mombo for the cards and the very informative letter!!

Tom and Joyce's packet came in the mail yesterday. Thanks for the great memories from the HL reunion.

It's amazing that Sue's envelope makes it faster to Europe than across the USA! Still waiting for it in Utah.

Good mail day today! Tammy's great card and enclosures (postmarked 11/7) finally showed up. Also received envelopes from Mombo and Tom & Joyce, both more great additions. Thanks all.

Wow! I got three packets today! Sue, Tom & Joyce & Dave. Love them all. Thanks much!

Dave, I enjoyed hearing that you did some aerial lighthousing. Did you post any of your photos on this site? I don't recall seeing them. I would love to see more of your photos.

Tammy, the cards I used for PCE 26 & 27 were both my own shots. The thumbnail pics on the bonus card were mostly ones we used on our special edition post cards for the Reunion.

When I have a little bit I'll try to put something together. Also did some aerial shooting at Alpena this year.

I received Mombos letter yesterday. Thank you very much for the great additions too.

Dave H, your letter came today! Great information and love the post cards! Thank you very much!

Thanks to Tom & Joyce, Dave and Charles for more great stuff!

Incidently I noticed that both Tom & Joyce's PCE 26 and 27 came with that horizontal postmark, instead of the circle one that we've known for so long. Is this the postmark of the future?

Received from Dave H. & the Abbotts. Thanks to all.
So many of the folks in this group have a great flair for photography. Great stuff!

Charles

Tom and Joyce, your letter arrived this morning! Thank you so much for all the photographs and post cards!

figure that one out - Tom & Joyce mailed their card the day before I did, and from a very large city. It gets there the day after mine?

Received Charles' card today.

I received Charles' card yesterday. Thank you Charles.

Tammy

Bob, Hyperadial , got your letter today! Thank you very much! Always nice to see the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse!!!

Hello everyone,

Received four more postcard/envelope mailings this week.
Thanks to each of you for the cards and letters and additonal info about the LH's.
Thanks to Charles Bernth, Tom & Joyce Abbott,
Dave Hannum, and Sue LeFever.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

JoanieO

Received 14 replies so far.

I received two more letters this week - thanks to Dave and Mombo - I like your cards.

Many thanks to Bob K. for the neat cards but I am confused. I thought I'd already received a card from him much earlier, the Gray's Harbor Lantern room???

I know that I am very late with my cards for this exchange. I hope to have them out by early next week. Thanks for your patience.

Also guilty. I am working on them and hope to have in the mail no later than Thursday.

PCE#26 mailing was taken to the Franktown Post Office this morning. Iris and Margaret, the PO said 4 - 6 days to Germany and UK.

I'm sorry that I haven't gotten my cards out yet... hopefully by next week. We've had some family illness and time was spent at the hospital.

Thanks for understanding.

Patty

Melody, your envelope arrived here today, very nice, thanks!

Melody's bonus pack arrived here yesterday. Thanks Melody

Charles

I have received Molody´s card yesterday - thank you very much!

Melody's great letter arrived here today! Thank you Melody for your trouble! Very interesting!!!

Melody, thanks for the postcards! I photographed the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse from the air in October. I didn't have a chance to pick up any postcards. So, it was great to get this card.

Received a bonus packet from Bob (Hyperdial) today. Thanks so much for sending even though I was so late with my mailing, was very kind of you.

I hope to see Jupiter as my next "add-on" the next time I have to travel to Jacksonville on business.

To everyone,

Thanks so much for the postcards, I did not have any cards of the lights ya'll sent! It's not easy obtaining lighthouse cards in Colorado, quite next to impossible! LOL.

Received Stephanie's major package today! Very impressive and will be a good resource for us to have.

Thanks Stephanie for your packet. I hope your work schedule gets back to normal.

Stephanie's package arrived here today as well. What a nice one, lots to read up on the lighthouse, thanks! You guys sure have been working hard. Hope you can rest up a bit.

Stephanie's mega-packet arrived here yesterday. Thanks Stephanie

Charles

Yes, we received Stephnies letter today!
WOW ... thank you very much!!!

Rec'd Shortcake's mega-package in yesterday's mail. Lots of great info, pictures, and the PC is one I did not have.

Thanks so much, and "Yes, the wait was worth it!"

Received Stephanie´s package today - thanks Shortcake, it was worth waiting for that :-)

I want to thank everyone for the wonderful cards and surprises from this exchange. I have finally finished mine for this exchange and mailed them all last evening. Enjoy!

Just awesome Judy! Thanks soooo much!

Judy, Thanks for a very interesting letter! Came today !

Thanks for your nice card and letter Judy. I've been out of town this past week and the envelope was waiting for me when I got back home.

Judy & Stephanie, Thanks much to both of you for your wonderful contributions to this exchange.

Tammy

Glad to see there are others who thing of the statue as a lighthouse!
