I will try to get the PA one out early next week, or maybe this weekend if any place is open.

Jersey's out today, away to Scanaway. It's all in the hands of USPS now. :rolleyes:

I'll get one and send it out this weekend. Is it safe to assume that most gas stations will have them? There's a truck stop near me that I know has them, but it is a little out of the way.

Did you think I was kidding here? I dropped this card into the "Out Of Town" box yesterday, and today it was delivered . . . to me! :gary

I've already returned it to the Post Office, and they said they would take care of it. But if you don't see it relatively soon, LMK and I'll try again for her.

In my industry, hard economic times mean you work even harder to stay afloat, I guess the USPS takes a different approach. :hm

You wanna hear the kicker here? The post card I found was a photo of the Madison NJ Post Office. :r

Pretty funny, I'd be more angry at USPS incompetence if it weren't so funny.

If you're still looking for a WV postcard I can send you one. PM me your address and I send it off Tuesday or Wednesday

Apoco 07-04-2011 03:13 PM

Mine is in the mail to go out tomorrow.

I sent a PM to Rich seeing if he can get the PA postcard I was supposed to send.
I spent the last couple of days after work driving around to gas stations and drug stores locally and can't locate any. It is blowing my mind.
Anyways I feel terrible it's not on the way yet.
If I don't hear back from Angus I will see if I can just order one online and send it straight to you.

so sorry for the delay, I had no idea it would be this hard.
I live kinda in the middle of nowhere, that may have something to do with it.

I live in Philly, so post cards are in abundance. Let me know if you need one from PA.

Re: Send me daughter a postcard, please?
 
The cards are flowing in, we'll post a photo soon.

Thanks everyone!

One cool thing a bunch of people have been doing is giving a short history of the area from which the card is sent. For instance, we now know that moon pies originated in Chattanooga, TN!

erratum 07-11-2011 01:49 PM

Re: Send me daughter a postcard, please?
 
If you still need one from Missouri, I can hop state lines & find you one ... just let me know by PM if you do.

In fact, I'm surprised at how difficult it is to find postcards anymore. Some clerks look at you like you're asking for "bfawwertmv!"

Anyway, OH and KY on the way, IN I'm still seeking. Can you give us an update on what states you still need?

Yah I had one say they are right over there.

My local Hallmark store had a rack of postcards. I had to ask around though.

Someone else is going to have to take Texas. I cannot find a postcard anywhere. Sorry bro. I looked all over the place and couldnt find a single one. :td

coffeemonkey 07-12-2011 12:29 PM

Re: Send me daughter a postcard, please?
 
If everyone sends as indicated in my PM's, we will be real close to having all 50 states covered and a few European countries to boot!

I'll look through my PM's and see if any states are unaccounted for. We have Texas now, thanks for looking.

baddevildog82 07-12-2011 12:57 PM

Re: Send me daughter a postcard, please?
 
Mine went out this morning for Georgia. Sorry for the delay, but I had a hard time finding a postcard! Went to at least 8 different places before getting on the highway and driving to a Love's truck stop about 20 miles away. They had a few to choose from.

Took me a while but I found one. I had to go to the welcome center for Omaha to get one. Their selection was pretty slim but the guy that worked there found me one that said Nebraska on the front. It should be there in a few days.

Oh good, I was going to volunteer if I hadn't seen a Nebraska one.

For those of you having trouble finding one in your state, try tourist attractions. Zoos, museums, amusement parks, etc.

OK, here is a list of the states for which we still need cards. Some have been accounted for but we haven't received them so I've listed them below with the name of the CA member who is sending it, we'll take them off as they come in this week. Hopefully I haven't forgotten anyone who said they are sending a card, if so, please let me know.

Colorado
Delaware - SteveH
Florida
Georgia - baddevildog82
Kentucky - hotreds
Maryland - Ranger_B
Missouri
Nebraska - Fordman4ever

North Dakota
Oklahoma
Oregon - backwoods357
Rhode Island
Texas - (a few have said they are coming)
Utah
Vermont
Virginia - Ranger_B
West Virginia - Ranger_B

If you can help with any of the states above that have no name next to them that would be great!

Thanks again folks.
