Hi to all my dear friends on net54.
I'm hoping to get you all to join in on a fun project this Spring.
My Sister-in-lw is a pre-school teacher in the Asheville, NC area and has decided to ask her friends (myself and my huge network included) to send postcards from around the world to her room of 20 or so 3 and 4 year olds.
Anything relating to the wide open world to the mind of a 3 or 4 year old
is just great! Something about your area, a landmark, history, sports, etc..,
will help Miss Maggi share the World with her students.
I keep bragging how my net54 friends are the greatest in the world, so let us pull together and send Miss Maggi a bunch of postcards!
Thanks for your help, each and every one of you.
Here's the info:
Hi to all my Facebook friends!

I'm having fantastic success so far! I'm asking you all, near or far, to send her cless a postcard! Just mention Unvcle Bill and a few fun lines and add a stamp and we're in buiness! The info is:
Miss. Maggi
Classroom A

Thank you all for helping and God Bless!

So no topless hula dancers? :)

cool idea, I'll find a good lava/volcano PC to send.... in the 1910-20s tourists used to attach the postcard to a poll and touch the lava with it and burn a corner off before send it. There is even a postcard that pictures people doing this.
But we cant get that close now :( and the Lava flow is now dead as of Wed night...

Who'll know, find a book of matches.


This is a wonderful idea. I'll send an old Mass pc.

Great idea and cool. I'll find one with some Alligators on it and send it.

Wonderful idea --a fall scene from the Berkhires, Massachusetts is on its way.

Great idea Bill, I am an "Uncle Bill" also. I am in Kentucky and I think the kids would enjoy a postcard with some thoroughbreds on it. Kids love horses!
