Postcards are becoming obsolete, did you know that?
There are "apps" for the IPhone now.
They are actually quite handy but there is
just something about picking out a postcard,
in one of those trashy general "souvenir" stores that I like.
Whenever the hubs and I travel, we each purchase a postcard.
I write a note to him, he writes one to me.
Without peaking, while we are away, we mail them home.
A few days after we get home, the mailman delivers them.
We have usually forgotten about them, so it's always fun when they arrive.
We write about our memorable moments, special meals,
what we enjoyed most!
It's always so fun to see what the other person writes.
Our postcards arrived today, from our trip to Connecticut.
I had forgotten about them.
We have done this for years and I have saved every one.
It's a great way to remember your special trips!

Debbie, what a cute idea! I have also picked postcards from various places I have visited. Happy 4th of July to you and your family.
That is a really an awesome idea. I love it! I still see lots and lots of postcards. I hope they don't disappear too soon.
I think this is a brilliant idea. I love postcards I always mail them to my girls when I am anywhere. Happy 4th of July Debbie Hug B
what a great idea. ( :
that is why I love "postcrossing" a program where you can send postcards all over the world. so fun. they are very popular overseas. more than in the USA.
oh.my.word. this is one of the sweetest things i've EVER heard! I'm telling my daughter...I wish I had started this years ago - we'd have such a memorable collection from all over the world!!!
What a creative idea....Such a fun way to remember the trip....
I have always enjoyed postcards. What a great idea.
What a great idea! I love postcards. How sweet that you mail one to each other and a wonderful way to remember all your special memories.
Romance at it's very Best.
(and from the viewpoint a former museum archivist: the treasures that these hold for future generations, yours or others, will bring lots of smiles down the road).
you two are pretty darn amazing. :)
That's a great idea/tradition!
What a fun idea!

What an awesome idea. I love sending post cards to my grands when we're away. Not just postcards, but greeting cards, and note cards are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Happy 4th!!
Wonderful idea! Happy Independence Day Debbie and Chuck!
What a cool idea!!! I wonder whether the mailman actually reads them...
And Happy Independence Day!!!
That is such a lovely tradition! You are right about postcards, although I always try to remember to send my mother one when we travel. She is a great lover of snail mail.
Aww you two are just gorgeous. I think that's such a beaut idea. Quite romantic in fact :D)
This is a wonderful idea! Love your blog.
