Boston Postcard - Postcard Friendship Friday, Weekend Mailbox


Ah the times of old sailing ships ...
They look fun and romantic, but I think I would probably have preferred to remain on dry land!


The USS Constitution (nicknamed "Old Ironsides") was built in 1797, and is still part of the US Navy fleet as a living museum of naval history.

How fun that Aunt Vicky got to see it!

Someone got mail in this box once.
A long time ago!
I found this delightful bird house at my friend Howard's house.
Howard and his wife Freddie are wonderful people who love whimsical things.

  4. I love looking at this type of ship. They came to Fort Lauderdale years ago so got to see one face to face. Sounds like Aunt Vicky had a wonderful time on all her boats.
