This one was indeed too late for Christmas, but no worries, enchanting David, you still made it on time for New Year's wishes. That's some amazing Water Dragon there, and I love the way the card is aged. As for the little quote, exactly what I needed to hear. Just perfect. Thank you for sending, I love it!
And I couldn't help uploading your rejected Christmas card too (scroll down), I hope you don't mind, I find it great :-))

Apologies to Dylan Thomas

I've always liked the Old Salt Road the best...the new one just isn't the same...

[Nancy Bell Scott]

Getting postmarked to death would be a great way to go! Write that proposal. No, no New Orchard Beach--there isn't a whole lot new in the entire state, in fact. We do have New Salt Road as well as Old Salt Road; that's about it.

that's nice....

I guess what we're doing right now is tea in stop motion....

[Marie Wintzer]

You know... things change. The cycles of life... But we can resume activity any time :-))

[David Stafford]

what a charming idea....why did you stop?

[Marie Wintzer]

That's a great idea David, do it!

It reminds me that in the early days we used to have virtual tea on Cheryl's blog every Sunday afternoon :-))

It's so funny you should ask me, Nancy. I stayed up all night writing a grant to the Pugh Foundation. I want to get funding for a documentary movie about mail art where I mail myself to all IUOMA people across the globe. (Working title: Connecting the Dots.) It's crazy but it just might work. Old Orchard Beach, Wakoshi, Kwa-Zulu Natal...I'm going to be postmarked to death. But it will be worth it. Of course, I am fabricating again but....but if Mr. Pugh happens across this I wouldn't be averse to taking a sack of money and flying to all the crazy places I've never been like...California. Is there a New Orchard Beach?

 

[Nancy Bell Scott]

Oh you two top mail artists are invited also. At first I was just thinking of people on the same continent who could therefore walk here.

Ok - thats good :-))! I thought it should be cancelled - a good alternative is just to miss it I guess :-))X
