Send me daughter a postcard, please?

[coffeemonkey]

My 7-year daughter is putting together a display for the local fair that she hopes will feature a postcard from each of the 50 states. I figure, through this forum, I might just have all 50 states covered!

Would you be willing to send her a post card? I promise she'll send a very cute thank you in return!

States we already have covered are the AZ, FL, MA, NY, OR, WA.

States we think we are going to have trouble with are North Dakota, South Dakota, all the Northeastern/New England states (except we have Massachusetts) and Utah. But all states are needed.

PM me for address and such.

Thanks guys!

[Blak Smyth]

I might be able to get you a PA one, maybe an amish buggy or covered bridge one.
Let me know when you have to have it by and I'll see if I can get around to picking one up.

you know whats funny? Because of all the fear of being bombed I somehow don't trust anything anymore.

[Steve]

This could be interesting to watch...:D

[The Poet]

I can probably find a NJ one for you, but lemme check local stores first to see for sure. If so, I'll both PM you for your snaily and post here so others know it's covered, hopefully by tomorrow.

[pnoon]

I have an idea that may be of help.
I will PM you when I get home from work.

[jesseboston81]

Damn. If I get up to New Hampshire later this week I'll grab one if someone hasn't already covered that state by then.

[Tyler]

Do you have Texas?

[baddevildog82]

I can send one for Georgia. PM coming.

[erratum]

[J0eybb]

Do you want them written on, or put in a flat rate box and shipped?

[coffeemonkey]

Do you want them written on, or put in a flat rate box and shipped?

Oh, definitely personalize them if you would, write on them, tell a story, whatever you feel like doing. It'll be a lot more fun if we get cards with character.

Thanks!

I do not see Nevada on your list, but if that's a mistake, PM me her name and addy and I send one out asap!

[Kneo]

You can count on the corn state to be represented!

[Kneo]

Question, should this be a store card or can we make our own. How old is your daughter. I have a 6 and 2 year old girls who would love t send a personal message and personalize the card.

[SvilleKid]

Got you on Alabama. PM rec'd from peter with her addy. Will try and send out tomorrow.

[coffeemonkey]

Personalized homemade would be just fine, special cards from other kids would be cool. Thanks!

[Blak Smyth]

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

[tsolomon]

Washington DC is on the way. :D

[The Poet]

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

[Apoco]

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.

Missouri is covered.

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

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]

Mine is in the mail to go out tomorrow.

[Blak Smyth]

Just PM me if you need a PA

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.

[coffeemonkey]

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]

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.
I headed over and they said wait you said post card? All we have is regular cards.

[tenbaseg]

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

[Tyler]

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]

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]

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.

[TonySmith]

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.

[Angus]

PA is on the way :tu

[coffeemonkey]

Thanks to everyone to your extraordinary effort!

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.

I may be able to help with N. Carolina as well. My dad and daughter are heading back to his place in the N. Ga mountains from Ohio and will be passing thru N.C. shortly. I've asked them to swing thru the welcome stations on U.S. 40 and see if they can find something. I'll let you know if they are able to help out.

[The Poet]

Hmmm. One would think NC and OK might be easy, as there are a number of folks on here from those parts. But RI and ND, that's another matter.

[Steve]

Florida has been covered, postcards will be in the mail monday. I am waiting to hear from my daughter about N. Carolina. She is heading home tomorrow and they are going to look for some this afternoon.

[Gophernut]

Sorry for the delay, WI went out today. Good luck!

[Steve]

Minor technical difficulty today, Florida and N. Carolina will be going out tomorrow.

[Salvelinus]

Vermont went out today. Hope it makes it on time!

[Steve]

Fl and N. Ca went out this morning. ETA is Thursday, July 28th, if we believe the USPS.

Sorry for the delay, I got caught in an unexpected meeting with the SE Regional V.P. yesterday, and I really couldn't think of a good excuse to dump him. Actually I thought of several, just none he would buy :D

Too much banter. ;)

[Tyler]

Haha must have been. More than anything it was the fact that I looked at all of the local places and couldn't find a post card. I thought my family might have some but that was a negative. I even searched gas stations, walmarts, targets, etc. but couldn't find any dam postcards. :td I'm just glad someone else took my place and was able to help him out as I felt bad about not being able to locate any.

[coffeemonkey]

My friend in Colorado said they sent it, have you not received it yet?

I'll double check but I don't think so. They have taken longer than a week in some cases so it may still be on its way.

[coffeemonkey]

I mailed mine last Monday. It better be there.

Not yet, but I am sure it is coming.

I wouldnt think it would take a postcard that long to get there, but it is the government so who knows.

[Kneo]

So what states do you stll need?

[Steve]

Florida and North Carolina should have arrived last Thursday. Did you get them?

[CoreyD]

I got a old college sweetheart in Oklahoma that I am really good friends with that can send her Oklahoma. PM Me if interested and I'll get her the address to send it to...I can even get her to send it out Monday.

[CoreyD]

Talked to her and shes in Massachusetts and when she gets back to Oklahoma Wed she will send it out, she said if you need 1 for Boston speak now hehe so all I need is the address.

[coffeemonkey]

Here are the states we still need and whether anyone promised to send one

Arkansas - kayak_rat

Did Oklahoma arrive?

[Ranger_B]

I had my wife and daughter tearing the bags from our trip apart. They can not find the cards. Let me know if they showed up I know they where put together but I dont remember mailing them. I am off in the morning tomorrow and will look all through the mail to see if it got misplaced.

He meant that the O.P. never posted a picture of the display as he promised those who were so generous to participate. ;)

I was wondering if I missed the post showing the display. I realize we sent him the postcards back in August. I do not remember ever seeing the finished project though.

Thanks.

Thanks again to everyone that helped, very few people provided return addresses but I have ways of finding those.

Due to display limitations we couldn't feature all the postcards on the board but they all were displayed on the table (as you can see in the photo below, we set it up at home first).

Yeah, gotta watch out for the OP, he only cares about himself. I've heard about him doing things even when someone asks him not to... :gary

For everyone else, we're buddies from our local B&M and Ted's a good BOTL. I'm sure he had every intention of posting the pics as he said he would.
