We don't get many letters the old fashion way (pen and paper and a stamp) these days. The postcard was written by Mom on a trip to Maine in 1984 and the letter from Dad had some photos taken at a family reunion in 1996. Mom wrote a fair number of letters, Dad wrote fewer. And I admit I do not write many. I have a few of theirs that I saved.
I joined the Header Challenge team in November. We post a new header each week on a suggested theme. Imac is the founder and head of the team. The members vote for best header and the winner gets the gold. The links above will take you to the other participants.
This blog contains my posts for Our World Tuesday and Sky Watch Friday. Click on the logos below to reach the host site for these memes and links to a world full of great photographers. I also share photos, both present and past, on additional subjects. I may occasionally post photos taken by others and will so note ownership in the post.
My other two blogs can be viewed through the links below.

I am retired, married to a smart, talented lady who once thought we computer people were geeks and now is one of us geeks. I have a long time interest in photography. We live in Maryland, about 50 miles from Washington, DC.
My main camera is a Nikon D3100 with two zoom lenses (18-55 and 55-200).

My mother used to simply hand me the post cards when she got back from a trip. Often there would be nothing on them.
Count yourself lucky.
No..it's not often that we see old fashioned snail mail and letters. Nice..nostalgic image.
