Postcard Friendship Friday

Its Friendship Friday over at Marie Reed's Blog. I think this Valentine shows a young couple who are definitely friends. This is kind of quick, but found something to share on this Friday. I just returned from a 3 day trip. http://www.cpaphilblog.com/

Cabinet Photo and Tin Types

Cute Boy with his Dog although he couldn't be overly comfortably with that frilly shirt.
These interesting tin types are probably from the late 1800's.

Guest Ranch Creede Colorado RPPC






I came across 10 postcards of a guest ranch in Creede Colorado. I do not know the age of these unmailed postcards. To see the rest of the group go to my eBay listing http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=220345752541
I find them to be quite interesting. I do not know how to read the name of the guest ranch since it is a brand. They are in varying conditions.

Sunday Postcard Art Winter Mystical

I am sitting up late finishing this postcard. I have missed a few weeks. In an hour it will be Sunday! The weather is mild although we had snow in Dec. The background scenes on this 4 by 6 inch postcard are from around here but I am glad the snow is gone. I have spotted a few deer, raccoons, possums but no unicorns.

You cannot get anyone to check the oil and the tires, or wash your windshields at a gas station today!These stylish women are using the gas station Bathroom and powdering their nose.
You still see a few of these old style gas pumps, in usually deserted gas stations in the middle of nowhere.
