Vintage Postcards: Part 2

(Part 2, you say? Yup! Here's Part 1.)

It's a slight crime that I don't remember where I got these, or how long ago it was, or where they've been all this time. But when was poking around the garage and found these in a box full of all kinds of other miscellany, I carried them inside like a newborn baby and carefully spread them across the dining room table.

Heaven!

How can I not remember?

Vintage postcard awesomeness
I mean, I've not lost it entirely – they do look familiar. And I love them now as much as I must have loved them then. If anything, my affinity for vintage postcards has only grown over the years. And I've always had a weakness for California and beaches and especially California beaches.

Most of them are blank, but one with a drawing of Carmel Beach on the front has a note that I love.

Ships that pass in the night

It starts:

"We met like ships that pass in the night, and so very often I think of you as I bask in the sunshine on this beautiful Peninsula."

Sigh.

I need to put these somewhere (safe!) where I will always know I have them.

Or maybe put them far, far away again (safe!) – so that I can rediscover them all over again.
