Do you need Wisconsin or Minnesota? I live in WI but will be traveling to MN next week. Happy to send either one or both from their respective states.

Hopefully my postcards got the correct state postmark. Massachusetts is a tricky state.
The western third/half is postmarked Hartford, CT. The Southeast area is postmarked Providence, RI, and I believe some of the northern area is marked Manchester, NH! I mailed it on a trip near Boston so hopefully I picked a correct town.

I can’t find postcards like I used to. So I pick a lot of them up at state parks that we camp at or any historical site, etc. that we go to. I’ll pick up one for myself and some to send out for Postcrossing.
I’ve ordered some online, but it’s just not the same.

What exactly is post crossing/ cross posting.... I've recieved fun stamped post cards but these terms aren't in the glossary.... I thought they were just for fun?! I'd potentially be interested in making some

Agreed. I also find them in hotel lobbies, featuring the hotel of course, but sometimes still interesting and usually free.

Postcards are definitely an endangered species. I travel extensively and it is harder and harder to find cards even in touristy areas. On my recent trip to Jordan, others in my group soon were aware that postcards were a thing with me. And when I did see them, I would buy 10 or more at a time. Not sure if I would see any more along the way.

True, however, postcards that contain hand-carved stamps, ARE letterboxing related. They are a category of LTCs (listed as oversized), and there are trackers with themes for the postcards, as well as many that are sent out just for fun.

That’s true but the hobby on the website in question is something else.

I'm thinking that's because it is cheaper and more personalized to snap a photo and post it to FB. I mean really where can you buy a good post card of the meal you are about to eat.
