Lovely! My dear friend Kelly sent me these cards. She is living in St. John's now and I had asked if she was ever in the Gander area if she could try and find me a post card from there. I was actually born in Gander.
Anyway- she had to go on quite a car drive, pretty much from one end of the island to the other (Newfoundland is VERY large) and on her travels she picked up like eight cards for me! Too sweet. I am not going to post them all as I may share one or two with some fellow post card collectors.
Anyway - now I am sitting here longing to be on the island with my grandparents and my many aunts, uncles and cousins. Maybe I will be lucky enough to make a trip this summer.
Thank you pretty lady!
