Angel Hugs


This is a wonderful old postcard featuring a beautiful girl and small cherub. These old photographs are so precious.  So much work was put into them. 

I often wonder about the lives of the people one sees in these pictures.  Life is so different now-a-days.  These folks knew how to celebrate Christmas beautifully!

Merry Christmas, dear Friends!

Athena, or Venus? - Postcard Friendship Friday #275

This is a postcard I fell in love with awhile back. The drapery of her garment is exquisite, as is her face.

She is exactly as I would picture Athena, though after I posted this vintage postcard the first time, a person in the know pointed out Athena usually wears a helmet. Perhaps she decided on an afternoon off without it? Or maybe she's actually Venus?! Well, at least she LOOKS mythical.

Have a lovely weekend and Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

Shooting Star -Postcard Friendship Friday #155




News reports reveal we will experience a close call from a meteorite today.  The meteorite will pass by around 11 a.m. Pacific Standard Time.  Though scientists insist it won't touch us, the idea of its close proximity is still unnerving.  Especially as we also view additional frightening images of a huge fireball streaking across the skies of Russia to explode above the ground.

With all that is happening today, I thought this postcard to be perfect for Postcard Friendship FridayHere you see the goddess Athena, riding a shooting star through space.  

Have a great day, everyone.  Stay safe and watch out for stray shooting stars!
