Postcards from Arizona and Yachats

This one I didn’t spin the correct way, but it’s from friend Kelly who reports from Tucson that Southern Arizona is beautiful and hot and tried to kill her twice.

This Yachats postcard made it to me without a postmark! Sara reports that she and Shawn came to Yachats to tidy up Shawn’s grandfather’s grave. She also enjoyed a fish shop called Luna Sea.

Sara reports that this postcard was from a local shop that was full of fun items. They also had a banned books table, so Sara bought this postcard and a banned book.

The postmark for this postcard is Portland Oregon. So postcards from the Oregon coat must travel to Portland to be processed.

SKS: Nikki McClure

For her birthday, I sent Sara this and two other postcards along with a gift certificate to Buy Olympia. She sent this postcard right back. We both enjoy Nikki McClure’s work and we are both big on voting.

Sara mentioned that she’s been on Buy Olympia’s mailing list for a time, but she didn’t realize the postcard she sent me that got me to Buy Olympia was from that same mailing list!

SKS: Lots of Eureka Things

There’s a lot going on on this postcard! It’s a map from a mural to a store (or vice versa). It’s a picture of the mural at the end of the walking tour. It’s pictures of iconic Eureka buildings.

Sara reports that it’s a wonderful walk and that she saw the artist paint parts of the mural.

Sara also is excited about her upcoming visit to Portland made possible by flights to Coeur d’Alene being cheaper from Portland than from Arcata.
