10 cards from the USA (from Jim) :)



A helicopter view of the American and Horseshoe Falls


Washington D.C. The United States Capitol. The United States Capitol is located in a beautiful 221 acre park in Washington.


The Breakers - Ochre Point Ave. Newport, R.I
The Breakers has become the state's number one tourist attraction since it was opened by the Preservation Society of Newport in 1948. The design follows that of the north Italian palaces with 70 rooms on 4 floors arranged around a huge central hall. Its location faces the Atlantic Ocean from Ochre Point on the famous Cliff Walk.


Pelee Island Lighthouse. Built in 1834 - 2nd oldest lighthouse Canadian side of lake Erie. Decomissioned about 1909. Restored 2000.

Lighting strikes during a midsummer storm raging over the Straits of Mackinac.

South Beach - the fun place to be! (Florida, USA)


The 129. ft. Edmund Fitzgerald, builz in 1958, is the most famous of modern day Great Lakes shipwrecks. It broke apart and sank during a violent storm off Whitefish Point in Lake Superior on November 10, 1975.

Tennessee's 1845 Greek-revival state capitol building remains the area's principal landmark.


A nice card with a pic of a stamp. :)



Beef Pot Pie - my first recipe card! :)

Huge thanks to Jim (fremont) for the 10 card he promised to send me! Amazing!
