u/Neona65 - Thank you for the amazing embroidered turtle card! Wow, I want to learn how to do this! Do you have any advice on how to start? I’ve done a bit of cross-stitch, but this type of embroidery is entirely new to me!
u/GothWitchofBrooklyn - Thank you for the awesome galaxy card and stickers!! I really like the waterfall stamp you used on the envelope. Swimming in Lake Michigan sounds very refreshing. I’ve only swam in a lake once… the bottom was… squishy. I’d love to swim in a deeper lake so I wouldn’t feel the bottom!
u/fruitbb - Thank you so much for the Good Human card and the fantastic stickers! I especially loved the turtle sticker. I was having a bad day when I opened this, and your message made my eyes water with happy tears. I really needed those kind words. Thank you so much!

u/TyeDyeAmish - Thank you for the incredible copper postcard with the image of a ghost town. This may be the coolest postcard I have ever received! Seriously, it’s incredible! Thank you so, so much for this beautiful postcard!

u/k1ngfish - Thank you for the slipper orchid postcard! It traveled such a long way to get it to me. It’s pretty incredible, isn’t it? The stamp is absolutely gorgeous! My summer is going well, and I hope you are doing well, too!

u/_alltyedup - Thank you for the strawberry postcard! I have, indeed, been having a warm summer! It was in the 90s today, but with the humidity, it felt like it was over 100˚F! I hope your summer has also been warm and sunny, but maybe not quite that warm!

u/mostlygoodthings - Thank you for the vintage Edinburgh postcard! I like the image of the man playing the bagpipes. It sounds like you’ve found some cool postcards during your travels!

u/0n10man1ac - I really hope I spelled your username correctly! Thank you for the cute postcard with the scuba diver finding underwater treasure! Your handwriting is amazing and should be turned into a font! I enjoyed reading about the time that you saw dolphins jumping out of the water. It must have been a very beautiful experience!

u/Boomer1717 - Thank you so much for the Brattle Book Shop postcard! It definitely made me tear up a little bit. When I was in college, I used to take the train into Boston, and that bookstore would be my very first stop of the day. I have so many cool books that I found in the outdoor section. If you ever have a chance to take a trip up there, I definitely recommend stopping by. There’s another good one in Cambridge across the street from Harvard. I don’t remember the name off the top of my head, but it had a lot of old, unusual books that graduate students probably obtained for their dissertations and then sold or donated immediately after graduating. Lots of books on obscure medieval history topics!

u/dwrfstr - Thank you for the homemade card and envelope! I really want to try the recipe you included. I might try it with either chicken or cauliflower in place of the shrimp. But the best part was the back of the recipe: the picture of some of the most beautiful loaves of bread I have ever seen. I love bread. Love it. Now I want bread. But anyway, I loved receiving your very creative mail! Thank you again!

u/jane_q - Thank you for the watermelon card! Man, now I want watermelon to go with the aforementioned bread. I particularly enjoyed the St Panteleimon sticker. It’s so random, and it sent me down a Wikipedia rabbit hole! And thank you thank you thank you for the turtle postcard!!! I will be sending a reply sometime this week.

u/Slavkan12 - Thank you for the homemade card with the bicycle and all of the fun inserts! I love all the stickers and the way you added a little pocket inside the card! I’m sorry your trip may be cancelled. I hope you are able to find something fun to do instead. Maybe you could take a shorter trip somewhere closer to home? I will respond to your card sometime this week! :)
