Hello and warm wishes to all Postcrossers! I LOVE this project. I am married and live in Madison, Wisconsin. Our home is shared with our rescued dogs: Scooter the rat terrier (my avatar picture), Bandit, and Squirt the chihuahuas. I like to sew quilts, collect postcards, listen to music, and read magazines and books.

I will be happy with any postcard that you send to me, but please DO NOT send double fold greeting cards-they are not postcards. I try to send postcards that people like and hope you will do the same. ALL the postcards in my FAVORITES GALLERY are my WISHLIST, ones I would like to receive. Due to excessive damage on postcards from the postal service machinery, I WOULD PREFER POSTCARDS TO BE SENT IN AN ENVELOPE, feel free to write on back of the postcard. If this is more expensive or troublesome, just send the postcard the regular way.
