Girl Scouts

Name:     Girl Scout Twinchies
Created:  10/2016
Swap:     -


I received an email from a Girl Scout troop that attempted one of my boxes on LbNA.
I told the leader that it was probably missing and that I would place a series just for them.

As always, I made some cards before planting!

A set of three cards created for my Pokemon Go friends.

Send out the search dogs!

Yes, I'm still around.  Part of the reason that there have been few new posts is that it's summer and I don't sit at my computer when I can be outdoors.  Another part is the changes to AQ make it look horrible and hard to use on my computer, so I use my tablet whenever I can. If I'm not using my computer then I'm not typing blog posts.  I also can no longer print out a usable checklist to keep track of what cards have been shown so there might be repeats after awhile.
(As of right now, I have written and scheduled posts thru the end of September)



Anyway, here's a new card.
"Ain't Nothin' But A Hound Dog"

The stamp was a request.   Not exactly what they asked for but I liked this image better.

Planetary Quisps

Name:     Planetary Quisps
Created:  5/2016
Swap:     -

In my latest road trip I wanted to place a series all the way across the country.  I carved planet stamps and placed them along I-90 at the scale of 1AU = 100miles.  Boston, MA is "The Sun" and Neptune is near Spokane, WA!
