Kiss5Tigers post cards

I found some post cards from a photography project a few years ago.  The contact information on them is still good so I was trying to decide what to do with them.  Then I remembered that I have a huge mailing list from IUOMA that I never manage to reach out to.  So you may get a post card from me.  Feel free to send mail art, hit me up on facebook or read my blog.  I welcome the interaction.
