I have a very special request. ANYONE ELSE??

[jenluckenbach]

Is there anyone who would be willing to send a post card to a little girl for a school project???

My 5 year old grand-niece, Anna, has just started kindergarten. And their first project is to have people send a post card to the school. The object is to see how many US states they can represent.

For privacy sake, I will only give the address to the school, along with my Niece's full name (her name needs to be on the post card) to people who PM me.

Now, I know we have a LOT of US states represented here at pet talk, and even other countries!! SO I sure hope you can spare just a little time and money to make Anna thrilled to receive these cards.

Thanks. :) I am counting on you.

[Killearn Kitties]

Jen, I would be delighted to send a postcard, but obviously, I am not from the US. Do you want me to? I will not be offended if you don't need one from me.

[Karen]

PM me, please!

[Kater]

I'm in!! :)

[jazzcat]

Send me a PM with the info please.

[Taz_Zoee]

I'd be happy to do it. Now I'd just need to find a place to get a post card.
When does she need them to be sent by? I could also get one from Tahoe. We'll be up there the weekend of the 22nd. And we'll also be going to Reno.
So, please PM me the info. :)

A Cat Card And A Prayer From The Found Cats Will Be On The Way Tomorrow!!

[jenluckenbach]

Thanks everyone.

I should add, that the idea is to get 100 post cards in 100 days. So there is plenty of time to get your cards in.

So far it looks like:
Ohio, Massachusettes, Vermont, Oregon, California, Hawaii, Alaska, Tennessee, Canada, Scottland and Mexico are participating.

Come on you other states. ;)

[ChrisH]

Does she want one from over here in Wales too?

[kb2yjx]

PLease pm me the info, and there will be a card from the Garden State!!!

[Freedom]

Send me a PM and I can cover RI!!

I did this for a boy in Texas 2 years ago. Long story, his mom knew someone who knew a friend of mine! :D

[jenluckenbach]

It would sure be great if anyone who sends a card could scan it and post a photo before sending (since we'll never actually see them).

Just a thought.

[AbbyMom]

Please PM me for a postcard from lovely Illinois! :D

[kt_luvs_kitties]

I will. North Carolina here. :D

[rg_girlca]

Can I send one from Canada Jen, or does it have to be just the States?

OOOPPPPSSSSS!!! Never mind, I just saw your list.

I would love to do this, so please PM me the info. :D

[jenluckenbach]

WOO HOO!! Add to the list Illinois, North Carolina, Australia, Nevada, Oregon, Another part of Canada, another Alaska!!

(If I missed anyone, I apologize, this is just a rough list. :o )

[Randi]

Willie

[lbaker]

[Sevaede]

Thanks for giving me the details, Jen! :D

ETA.. Does the postcard need to be themed on where it's from? Like a "Welcome to Oregon" for someone from Oregon?

[Anikaca77]

I can do it too if she wants one from PA just PM me the info.

Thanks,
Melissa

No, the card can be ANYTHING. But it would be nice if you wrote "Hello from.....(wherever)" in the message part.

[ChrisH]

I sent this one. :) (click to see bigger)

Unfortunately the stamp covered most of the 'Cyfarchion o Gymru' (Welcome to Wales) on the address side. :rolleyes:

[kb2yjx]

Jen answered my question!! I cannot find a post card from NJ, but I did find some cards from Cape Cod in my desk!! I will add a note that the card is from NJ!!!!

[lvpets2002]

[Edwina's Secretary]

The Land of Lincoln card is in the mail! Sorry....as I am traveling I wasn't able to scan it first....

[catmandu]

the Cards on Its way with a prayer from The Found Cats for Anna and her Friends, if thats pemitted in schools these days.

[sasvermont]

I put the postcard in the mail this morning. I didn't have time to scan it. It is a photo of the oldest log cabin in the USA.....In Grand Isle Vermont. I hope she has a fun time with this project.

I once had to do a "Flat Albert" project for a child. I had to photograph a nasty looking flat paper doll all over the city of Burlington. I had fun doing it, in the long run, but I certainly looked very stupid while taking photos of a cardboard person, sitting all over the parks, libraries, restaurants, banks.....ehehhehehehehehe....

Hope for lots and lots of post cards.
;)

[jenluckenbach]

BUMP.....For Laura...;) welcome home. :)

[Freedom]

Jenn, any word from your niece? By now, cards should be arriving fairly often for her!

[jenluckenbach]

No. It would be nice to get an update though.

[Husky_mom]

hee are the ones reay to be sent on monday morning....... we are all set now... ;)

the first one shows some of our scenery, although we are a desertic state we do have this variation, that waterfall is the tallest in all Mexico, and it´s also considered one of the tallest in the world, it´s called "Basaseachi". then to th eright top is a lake called "arareko" which is pretty nice as you can canoe or kayak in it....... then on the right bottom is a glimpse of the "copper canyon" which is very neat also.....

the second postcard shows some of our native indians, it show some of their customs of dancing and playing those drums also a very nice portrait of the kid... as you can see in my avatar pic we look pretty much opposite from that, but thta´s because we were "mixed" with the Spanish when they came here..... this "Tarahumara" population is sort of like aztecs, they remain the same, regarding looks, customs, and way of life.........

[Nobas Mom]

Well I sent mine on Monday from Washington but forgot to scan it first... sorry guys... it was a beautiful one of downtown Seattle on the front and then a super-imposed Space Needle in the background on the back!

[Barbara]

I sent mine from Erding /Bavaria ( a little town closest to us) last week. Hope it arrives ok :)

[Taz_Zoee]

Here is a little bump.
And I finally made it back from Lake Tahoe. My post card has a baby black bear clinging to a tree. I wasn't able to scan it because our scanner is not working for me. Sorry. :( I'll post it if I can get the scanner to cooperate with me.

[Sonia59]

I sent mine last week.

It shows the Giants in the North of France, that we can see during Carnaval or during the annual party in almost every village or town.

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

I sent one with a beautiful sight on the Grand Place of Brussels. There is a huge flowercarpet with flowers coming from my hometown Lochristi!
I hope that little Anna gets the card in good shape :)

[jenluckenbach]

Anna has recieved many cards (but since she is only 5, we REALLY don't know how many :rolleyes: ).

But what we DO know is that she is enjoying them. And the school is still collecting, so if ayone else would like to send a post card, please PM me for the details.

THANKS!!!
