I get letters in my box from all over the world, a few are regulars in my mailbox and most are just visiting for the moment. I wanted to find out a bit about where these letters come from so here is what I decided to do. I am going to google the cities on the envelopes and share it on these posts for others to enjoy and for me to remember. I want to remember all the wonderful places I receive letters from.

The first is West Frankfort, IL where a new pen friend Elizabeth is from.

 

Demographics

Some points of interest that cought my eye.

Crab Orchard Lake A wild life refuge would be a nice place to visit

Old King Coal Festival is going on in September, looks like fun for the family

 

Check out the City of West Frankfort for more great information

Returned home late late last night from Florida my vacation has come to an end and now it is back to the regularly scheduled programming.

Here are a few pictures I think I can use to make note cards or postcards out of.

A picture album I can use to make postcards or notecards

 

First Day back not up to doing much just unpacking and enjoying the day with my 4 yr old.  My 8 yr old is still in sunny Florida enjoying his Summer break and he will return home with my 21 yr old son.  I am looking forward to my oldest son visiting for a bit on his college break.

Ah Summer time it’s so darn hot but I love this time of year minus the 99 degree weather.  Hey but I always have a complain in the Winter I complain about that too haha.
