Random Words and Circles

 I spent the morning cutting circles and words out of a magazine that was headed to the recycling bin. It was a very satisfying activity for a gray morning.

What do you think? Do you have a creative activity that you can do in a few minutes and feel satisfied?

On the reverse:
The townspeople gathered, each spring, on the shore of the Suwanee River to watch the shell flotilla as it passed by.

Postcards from the National Postal Museum

 My friend Annie, who now lives in Florida, grabbed a large supply of these postcards before moving south. She shared with me cause she know...
