Sara sends me a home-state postcard because she’s visiting her in-laws who also live in Oregon.
She reports that they did a lovely costal drive. Reading Sara’s message, I also got to see the different ink colors her mother-in-law has.
I almost couldn’t find this one in the pile because it is much longer than a postcard and wasn’t in the envelope where I keep the backlogged pile.
Sara reports that this is a Humboldt County artist.
I looked up this website and it’s for sale for $2,199.00, if you would like to buy it. I wonder what happened to joangold and their website.
Sara reports from her sunny side deck that she’s having a Summer Sara weekend.
She also observes that it’s a shame the artist’s name isn’t included on the postcard which both she and I like the style of.
And the puns continue!
Sara reports that she has a letter writing station set up, but did not get to letter writing over spring break because they were hosting visitors. She sends good wishes.
Sara spruced up this postcard that I think was designed so someone could color it. But neither the sender nor the receiver enjoys coloring. Good job with the gold ink, SKS!
Sara asks about our snowstorm (thoroughly covered on this platform!) and tells me about Northern California winters which have a lot of rain and a sunny day to lighten the gray days. No snow for them, though.
The stamp on the card is one of the ones from the snowy day series. Very on brand!
Another great postcard from Humboldt County. I hope the next place Sara lives has such excellent postcard offerings, but in the meantime, I’m enjoying these.
Sara reports that she’s about to teach her Friday double class via Zoom and sends me good wishes for my week.
Sara modified a generic statement into a YAY statement for me.
She also reports that she sent a batch of postcards to her new students and hopes I am enjoying our new day in DC and in the US. (The postcard was written on 1/21.)
Sara sends me greetings as I wrap up two jobs and start another.
Not pictured here because I just noticed it, is the place for the stamp. Sara has cleverly placed the official stamp to the left of the usual place for the stamp so I can see that artist included another woodcut that says “The days are long, but the years are short” Very fun! And a good way for me to show off fun stamp areas that I come across.
One thing about Humboldt County, they don’t lack for quality postcards. Sara reports that their small business Saturday shopping got them in a good spot for Christmas. She says they usually buy when they travel, but since there has been no travel, the money is staying local.
One thing about the mobile S/S household: they know how to send an address update. I’m excited to visit when it is safe again.
