Looking forward to getting mine! I'll be sending mine out by middle of next week (I hope) ... at least I'll start sending them - it'll all depend on how fast I can get hubby to print them out at work as my printer is very sick (maybe Santa will bring me a new one)

3 more cards.
The first one was for Happy Wanderer, and is of Glencoe, the site of a famous Massacre between the McDonalds and the Campbells.
The next two ( yes two - I spoil her ), are for Julie.
I was just going to send her a door, but as everyone else was getting a scenic one, I sent her one of those as well.
First the door - the entrance to a very old church in Scotland.
and this is Julie's other one, again taken on Loch Lomond

Joe...Thank you so very much!
I love the door...if it wasn't for *you* those doors wouldn't be nearly so special. And this one is especially neat as it's not "just a door." There's the coolest face in the photo...kinda reminds me of Alice in Wonderland.

By the bonnie, bonnie banks of Lock Looooooo-mond.

I don't think I'd mind living there at all.
ALL the postcards so far are simply gorgeous, Joe. But I doubt seriously if you'll ever be able to "top" the cottages...unless of course I get a cottage plopped down RIGHT beside the Loch.
(Oh...and thanks Dave for helping Joe. You're a sweetie pie.)

But that's ok...I'll share...mouses don't take up much room.

Only to be fair and impartial, I volunteer to be the documentary photography when you two get together.
I love Irish Breakfast Tea.

Joe,
I got mine yesterday... Absolutly wonderful shot!!!!!!
I am amazed at the coincidences of people's choices for postcards. I recieved one of the massacre site of the Campbells and the McDonald's and what would you know, my wife is of the Campbell clan..... hehehehehe So I think she took the picture and will treasure even more than me.... hehehehehe
But I love it and hope to see it with my own eyes one day...

Im glad you like it - what a coincidence.
You know of course that at the massacre of Glencoe, the Campbells were the baddies who killed all the McDonalds, to this day - Campbells dont get served in some of the local shops - hows that for holding a grudge......
Heres Totems card.

These are superb pictures Joe,they bring back so maney memories, in fact it's a farily safe bet that Joy and I have taken a trip on the boat in the shot of Loch Lomond.

These are all super photos, Joe. Can't wait for ours to arrive. I'm getting all excited like a little kid. I just adore Scotland and those beautiful mountains but your little Irish cottage by the sea looks positively idyllic. I must twist Rob's arm to try and get over to Ireland sometime.
