🫢 Busted! Postcard Hijinks

December 12th & 13th. Unrelated to the hijinks I sent a postcard to Iceland. The postcrossing profile was very specific about what kind of cards to send, but I think I was able to pull it off. This is from a Pecan store just outside of town that has many nut related items for sale. Continue reading

Austin, Texas Tuesday December 12 9:35 am 48° F (9° C). This is the refrigerator of my pal Dan who lives across the parking lot from me. That South Padre Island card is one that I recently sent to him and I see that he placed it near a postcard that I sent him years Continue reading

🎒 Postcards & Slingshots

🚶♂️1,600 Steps @ Bastrop State Park

Monday December 4, 7:42 am. The weather in central Texas is still decent (mid 50s [13 C]) and so it is still a good time to visit the State Parks and add another stamp to my State Park Passport. When I checked in at this park the ranger asked me if I wanted red ink Continue reading

🍕 Three Layer Pizza, Thanksgiving and Old Baldy

Let’s start with that amazing pizza. Behold the Totino’s triple layer! Juicy. I have been enjoying making postcards to friends out of “stuff.” The following two cards were made out of Half Price Books’s coupon calendar booklet I added stickers to cover up some logos and blemishes. And on Sunday the 26th we spent some Continue reading

Postcards to Germany & Tony

These glossy cards have been a pain in my butt. I would normally write everything on another piece of paper and tape it to the card, but I’ve been experimenting with gel pens lately. These pens tend to take a while to dry and are prone to smudging, but they do write well on the Continue reading

📨📨 Postcards for Tony

Before we discuss postcards, let us discuss the 3rd power supply failure of our plant lights. I accidentally purchased a set of 4 when trying to ask for combined shipments for two lights. Oops. The good news is that as these power supplies have gone bad I’ve had a replacement. This is the last one, Continue reading

🌆A Weekend of Parks pt. 6 Ham Radios

When leaving the last park Lake Arrowhead I didn’t have a plan for where to visit after attempting to find the underwater town (which I did not find) and so I pulled over for a moment to research where to visit next. Heading South towards home the next park is Fort Richardson State Park. I Continue reading

Another weekend and another opportunity to visit more Texas state parks. 10/19/23 – Preparation I have had a hard time understanding how camp site rentals work at the Texas state parks.
