On the road again!

We are actually staying put for an extra day in an RV park, (not the one pictured that was 2 days ago) so I might blog a little more. I did find an antique store and bought a few postcards and stereoviews. Today I am going to a quilt store in Dillon Montana. Having fun!

Harolds Club Reno Nevada Chrome Postcard

This is one of the postcards I got at Harolds club in Reno Nevada. But alas it closed down many years ago. I was so disappointed. The mural on the casino was quite eye catching.

The Red Lodge Savage Wigwam Bristol UK RPPC

Wouldn't you like a den like this. Actually this is a room called the Savage Wigwam where Bristol (UK) artists use to meet. Now entertainers and laymen can come here. It is part of the Red Lodge built in the 1500's. Queen Elizabeth the First stayed here, and later it became a reform school for girls. Not quite sure what its used for now except for special events.

Festival of Postcards Aug Theme WATER "Blow Hole" Hawaii

Festival of Postcards theme for August is Water. Thanks to Evelyn Yvonne Theriault for sponsoring this monthly event. http://acanadianfamily.com/a-festival-of-postcards/

I picked a Hawaiian Postcard from the 1950's although I doubt if the scene has changed much.
BLOW HOLE IS A NATURAL SEA COAST GEYSER IN THE KOKO HEAD AREA OF OAHU, HAWAII.
This looks like a cool place to stand in the Hot weather.
Hawaii is surrounded by water and what better place to visit.
