What did your town look like according to Penny Postcards?
Click on the state and then on the county name to see old penny picture postcards from that area...pretty neat.

That is a nice site. I have many that were posted for my area. Postcards are small and fun to collect.

Actually, we had two (litter mates) for 8 years. We lost our beloved Daisy Mae on Oct. 26, 2008. We still have her brother, Scooby, who will be 12 this Thursday! It has been a tough three years. I really didn't think he would make it without her. What kind of life expectancy have you experfenced with yours? They are very special pets.

I actually have 2 - The seconded one is in the background. I find it is hard to get photos of both girls at the same time. About 6 yrs ago I had 4 rescued greyhounds at the same time- now that was a house full.

Glad you liked the site
