Sara added some sparkly stickers to this very pretty postcard. I seem to have forgotten most of my Idaho state symbols. I’m good with Syringa, mountain bluebird and the western white pine, but the others were not on my radar any longer.
Sara reports that it’s a sunny day in Arcata after some rainy days. And that she wrote this during a meeting.
A double fun SKS mail suprise: a nice letter complete with stickers, plus a postcard.

Sara reports from “the great 208” that she’s been experiencing humid days with the excellent smell of petrichor.
She also wrote a postcard as the car she was in was driving on I-5 near my house. She was on a road trip and the other companions decreed that there was no stopping to say hi.

Sara sends good vibes from Boise, where she got the postcard (it came in a set) at a Hallmark Store near her mom’s house.
She also remarks that she doesn’t see Hallmark stores as much anymore.
Indeed. I had to google to find out where the closest Hallmark stores to me are. The answer: two in Vancouver, one in Hillsboro, and one at Clackamas Town Center.
There were two within throwing distance growing up in Boise. One at Overland Park Plaza, and one at Hillcrest Plaza. I spent a lot of time in both.
Who doesn’t love a calculator pun?
Sara reports a quiet weekend and their their new roommates have moved into the renovated basement.
Also, I made this Zentangle.

A return home after vacation meant I got to see the last three of the social justice kittens and puppies. Delightful, all of them.
I find it confusing that the photo is landscape, but the title is vertical.

Sara sent this lovely postcard that she picked it up at the NCTE conference.
