Sara said that this postcard came from SFO. As you can probably see, the texture of the card is devine.

Sara writes that she and Shawn visited the Humboldt County Fair for the first time since 2019, and had a good time, though it was a hard shift from the Minnesota State Fair. I can attest to that being true, as I’ve been to both the HCF and the MSF.

I note that the copyright on this postcard is from 2017. I wonder what the genesis of this card was…. 😉

Sara sent this knowing that I was on vacation and asking for vacation details. This postcard came from her summer vacation in Bermuda.

I’m a fan of pants, but appreciate this message.

Sara comments that nude from the waist down seems odd to her, and I agree. But it made us both laugh.

This postcard comes from Whistle and Fizz in New York.

Sara reports that, back in Arcata, working with a friend made the work fun and that her first time with students is tomorrow.

Sara says this postcard came from a coffee shop she and Shawn visited while in Portland. She reports that she attended a welcoming gathering for two new faculty members and that the weather was perfection.

On the back side, Sara includes a punny sticker “feline good” to round out this fun card. She hopes I’m “feline good” and reports that she’s back in Arcata and easing back into things.

This postcard has a bunch of fun things: map, landscape picture, state symbols, including the syringa. It even lists all the symbols on the back. The list includes the state dance, but I see no picture of square dancing on the front.

This would be a good postcard for Postcrossing.

Sara reports that she’s writing from the lake where the wind is gusting and that isn’t good for fire season.

This excellent history of the Bermuda short was bought in Bermuda and (I think) posted there on July 26. It’s got a US postmark, which I think was a weird thing Sara and I discussed.

Sara reports that she and Shawn poked around in shops, took a long walk, and rode the ferry to the Dock District. There was also rain.

Sara writes from Spirit Lake and observes that there is no date indicating when the pictures on the postcard were taken, but some of the views depicted are very different.

She says that her perch at Spirit Lake includes not just a nice view, but tea and a gentle breeze.

I will note that in the space below the warning DO NOT WRITE BELOW THIS LINE, the USPS has perfectly centered the barcode. Well done!

Sara reports that this postcard came from a store at Boise Towne Square while she was shopping with her mom. (We had walked around the mall when I was there and pointed at the spots where certain stores used to be.)

She also reported that the Starbucks where she was writing the postcard was playing Bananarama and other oldies from the 80s.

Sara sent this postcard to commemorate that we have successfully navigated our 30-year reunion. It was indeed fun to go to our old haunts together. We are so rarely in Boise at the same time.
