Just to bring it foward.

Just checking, ....has the address list been sent out yet for PC VI? Let me know...thanks!

Bob

See PC 5 Bob. This group is currently empty.

Hi Bob, ... I just received the PC-5 address list from Dave. I must have had a "brain cramp" and got PC-5 and PC-6 mixed up.

If this is the start of the PC-6 (in envelope) list, count me in. I've received some great cards for my collection from the previous mailings.

Bob

Count me in for #6.Since I'm new at this postcard exchange[I'm signed up for #5] I have a question.Do we write messages on the cards?only addresses on the regular mailed ones?nothing on the ones in envelopes?Preference?Guess this is more than one question!Really looking fforward to the exchange.

sign me up. was just in Tx & picked up cards for this exchange.

TGIFIF

I am ready to go for round 6!

I am a fairly new member and would like to get in on pc exchange #6. Seems like there is still room so please count me in and let me know what I need to do.

This sounds like great fun. My interest in lighthouses is new, however I have been collecting postcards for a long time. Looking forward to being a part of this.

5 members so far. When you decide to participate, please use the next number in your reply, so we have a current count.
Thank you.

Please sign me up as #6 in this postcard exchange. I've been a lurker for several years, but this activity has made me finally want to register. I've always just missed getting in on previous exchanges, so I'm very pleased to see another one starting up.

Count me in as #7

Please put us down for #8.

Finally got our postcards in the mail for PC - 3 and PC - 4, so we're ready to start a new round.

Sorry for being a little out of the loop here but can anyone sign up?...there are some areas that I visit regularly and some which I don't ...obviously I'm not all that familiar here. Can someone give me the gist of what to do?

Doc John

Assuming Doc John is in at #13 Kay and I will be happy to join at #14.

(1) sign up to participate (you have done this)
(2) Buy lighthouse postcards (enough for everyone in the exchange)
(3) Write a note to send with the postcard, but not on the postcard (this exchange is for "clean" cards that have not been written on or postmarked)
(4) Place card and note into an envelope
(5) Create address labels from the list that will be provided to you, or hand address the envelopes
(6) Seal the envelopes, affix postage, place into custody of the USPS
(7) Enjoy the cards you will receive over the course of the exchange, and all the notes that come with them
(8) Sign up for the next exchange, and possibly the "traditional" post card exchange

Dave

I'll join in at #15. I'll try not to send duplicate cards to the same people.

I'm going to have to load up again.

Dennis

Thank you Kokomo Dave for watching the store!

Thanks for filling me in Dave...and yes...I will be "lucky" thirteen. I'm heading for the Carolinas in 2 weeks and will have ample opportunity to get some nice (and hopefully unique cards).

Doc John

Does that mean I can be "sweet sixteen?"

I wanta play!
Derith

Replying to this post so we can get more signups and get going-moving to top of topics so it is more visible.I really like this postcard exchange!JoAnn

I think I know the logistics of everything...just one question...when does it start? And when do we get an address list?

John,

You won't get a list until the exhange is closed and finalized. So far, only at 16 of a possible max of 26 (25 plus everyone sends one to Harbour Lights). JoAnn is trying to promote this thread to fill in those final slots. We have added a couple of folks that are new to the forums.... are there any more out there that are interested in participating? It is a lot of fun to get post cards from your fellow connected collectors.

In the several exchanges I have participated in, I have received some very interesting cards, some of very obscure lights that we might not have known about otherwise. We have received home made cards and cards made from the senders own photos. All in all, a lot of really neat post cards, which is why you will see many people sign up over and over again as a new exchange opens up.

'Bout time for your trip to the OBX, John, so be sure to pick up lots and lots of cards. Personally, I would suggest 3 sets of 25 (or 26 if you want to keep a "file copy" for yourself). That way you will be covered not only for this exchange, but for the in envelope / no envelope ones next time around. After you participate in one, you will want to participate in more!

Dave

Last Call on Members!
Deadline Wednesday midnight July 18th after the Chat.
At that point will go with those registered and freeze the sign-ups.
Thanks for being patient and your inquires.

I have already told Bob I will come into this exchange and do the mailing list. That will make me #17 and Harbour Lights will be #18. Hopefully we will see a few more late comers join in.

For those that have not been a part of a post card exchange in which I provided the mailing list, you need to email me your old fashioned snail mail address. dhannum@iquest.net .

Dave

p.s. If Derith is Sweet Sixteen, hurry and get your cards in the mail, as the world is coming to an end! (tic)

Sounds interesting. I never payed much attention to this thread because I just don't get out that much to acquire postcards, and it's very hard to get lighthouse postcards here. I will be traveling to northern Michigan next month, I'll bet I can get some there! Not real sure how this works yet except for what was mentioned above. what else (if anything) do I need to know?

Digger, old boy, you are closer to lighthouses than some of the folks in this link! Look back up this link a bit to where I posted the step by step routine for Doc John. It really is fun, and you get lots of neat post cards. Be sure to buy several sets of 25-26 cards, though, so you have a supply ready for future exchanges.

Now, just sign below on the dotted line that you are going to participate;

Ok, I'll give it a whirl. Sign me up Dave. I think you have my address.

Ok haven't done the in envelope exchange yet. Time for a try, count me in.

Sheryl

Make me the 21st. The PO is really messing with the regular postcards lately!

Make me 22 (hoping to keep the ugly barcode stickers off these ones)

A DAY ISN'T A DAY UNLESS YOU'VE SEEN A LIGHT!!

The registering for this EXCHANGE is CLOSED. Thank you Dave for doing the addresses again, and getting this finalized.
