I would love a letter from Sweden! I follow the Swedish Homestead on YouTube and am fascinated by the country!

What a great idea! The next poster will get a letter from Finland

I'd like to play!  Whoever posts next will probably get a typed letter from Idaho, though. I have fallen in love with Google speech to text.

Nicole Alderman wrote:I'm game! And, if I timed this right, I'm getting a letter from Raven. SCORE!


Is it possible that no one has posted here for months?  Is it possible that no one writes handwritten letters anymore?  I'll write one.  But not sure who I write to.  Possibly Rolf Ollson?  Or is it Nicole Alderman?  I don't quite have the hang of this forum yet.
[Edit]  I think it's Not Rolf or Nicole, but Burl.

OK, I can do that, soon as he sends me an address (I've already Mooseaged him).  And I'm supposed to Mooseage you with my address, right?

Hi May! Sending you my address!

Letter from Missouri to the next poster! :D

Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.
Bright sparks remind others that they too can dance
What I am looking for is looking for me too!

Being verbose and sesquipedalian, I love to read and write letters (have been writing a weekly-ish letter to my beloved grandmother since 1998), so count me in on this scheme, if it's still going on!
