A fab book of Scottish Postcards that I hope to set travelling as an alternative bookring :o)

Journal Entry 2 by smurphie at Banchory, Scotland United Kingdom on Friday, July 9, 2010
The Ring is finally ready to travel.

The instructions are simple.

Choose a Postcard and replace it with one from where you live.

If you want you can write on it and tell us about where you live.

Then send it on to the next participant and include a postcard for them to keep as well if you can.

Have fun.

The postcard book has just arrived! I've contacted CynthiaA for her address; while I'm waiting to hear back I will choose a card to take out and one to put in.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

I fully intended to choose one of the many lovely scenery cards in this book, but then the shaggy Highland cow captured my heart.

The book is now on its way to CynthiaA. Thanks, Smurphie, for letting me participate in this fun project!

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

I enjoyed browsing these lovely postcards. It was difficult to choose one, but I decided on the scene of Edinburgh Castle and City. My husband and I visited there 3 years ago and this brings back great memories.

Mailed off to Minerva101 today.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

This was a beautifulk book of postcards - it really was difficult to choose which one I wanted! Thank you so much for sharing, Smurphie, and I am sorry for holding on to it for so long. It has been riding around in my van for the past week and half and I kept forgetting to stop at the post office. Pathetic - I know, but at least I made it to the post office today and the book is on it's way to Texas :)

Yes! At last bookcrossing.com lets me journal this book! beautiful pictures of one of my favorite countries (and my grandfather's homeland). I chose the card of Urquhart Castle and Loch Ness dusted with snow. I also enjoyed seeing everyone's postcards. Soon as I get the next address and find a local postcard this will be on its way.

Journal Entry 21 by LaRue at Medford, New York USA on Monday, August 15, 2011
I am very sorry this book got held up so long here, it is a long story. However, I have asked for Erishkigal's address and it will soon be on its way.
