Thank you, Al, for the interesting monument postcard. I like your quote. I'm more than ready for fall.

Cyn, thank you for the pretty Twin Falls postcard. Wouldn't mind sticking my feet in the water :) Our kittens that we were fostering have gone back to the shelter to be adopted. I miss them but hopefully we will have someone new to foster soon.

Nancy, Snoopy Rock looks so cool, and Sedona sounds beautiful. I bet the concert was awesome.

Thanks to Jeanne for the Keep Calm card. Hope your knee gets better soon. Tomorrow I think our heat index will be 115 so it hasn't cooled off yet. I'm glad it is cooler there though.

Thank you Jeanne for Mickey Mouse Vacay For Days Disney Florida postcard.  

Yesterday Chicago hits 100 degrees.  I went for a brief walk for 30 minutes and it was rough because of the humidity.

Thank you Jeanne for the artistic card. I also hope the weather calms down soon. Yesterday's heat index in Richmond was 108, and still, the rain refuses to fall on our small community.

Cheryl sent a beautiful card of Neuschwanstein Castle in winter. It must be magnificent to see on person. Thank you.

Jeanne postcard of the oil painting, "Dolomite Loop 2001" was colorful. Many thanks.

Again it looks like 3 people never received postcards I sent in August.  This has been going on all summer!

Don't know if it's a stamp problem or just PO losing things!
