You then send them a postcard with a handwritten message on. Your name then pops up with somebody who will then in turn send you a postcard. Its an awesome concept and I have loved receiving cards from all over the world.Firefly the Travel Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03278794823093520621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6234209863121615779.post-61692295753137135422012-08-06T19:35:47.676+02:002012-08-06T19:35:47.676+02:00Your rose garden is beautiful, and your view is am...Your rose garden is beautiful, and your view is amazing.

I was clearing dead stuff in the chaparral area where I don't often go - for fear of disturbing birds nesting - and found some very nice "cuppy" nooks to sit in for a while and just soak in being there. I'm thinking of adding a Peace rose, to remind me of my grandfather's garden. Your gardens are lovely! We are now having a weird windy, cloudy, and even a little rainy, morning. It makes me uneasy, because the weather is so strange... Like you we usually get foggy mornings that burn off to sun all day. Your vivid picture of blue and pink is quite literally stunning!Country Mousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13294472166693008328noreply@blogger.com
