Did you know I was a twin? Well, almost any way. :)
Brian Miller and I have been blog buddies for a few years
now. We've had a few laughs at all the things we have in
common from foods we love, things we done, places
we've worked and opinions we hold. We'd be rich if we
had a dollar for every time we've emailed a "You, too??"
Well, maybe not rich, but you know what I mean. :)
Too bad I'm not a poet like him, though! If you don't
already, go read WaystationOne for some
thought provoking, always entertaining writing.

Brian and I have done the postcard swapping thing!
And I need to thank Alan for getting us all started.
He has a wonderful blog, too, so check it out.
OneStopPoetry recently won The Shorty Awards at NYC. His
postcard is from his trip there. Love Time Square! I've only
been there once, way back in 1983 when some college friends
and I flew in for a 4 day, very fun trip.

I sketched a picture on my postcard to Brian.
I used the photo below as my inspiration
Go check it out HERE! It's worth a laugh or two. :)
Thanks, Brian! This was fun!

Its a lovely idea isn't it. Exchanging postcards in this virtual world. It's nice to actually get something you can pin on a board.
ReplyDeleteNothing says "Virginia" like a postcard of New York! Ha, ha! Way to go, Brian!
ReplyDeletesmiles...mine feels so lame in comparison to the one you drew me...smiles. which everyone can see if they drop over...oh and betsy has the poetic skillz in her acrostics, just wish i had her art skillz...smiles.
ReplyDeleteah fox, i can see you have been to VA then...
ReplyDeleteBrian ~ I've seen your art skills. You're not fooling me for a sec. lol...
ReplyDeleteOh that looks like fun. How wonderful to get a postcard from NY. I was in times square once many years ago too. I just saw your recipe from the previous. Gonna go make some now,
ReplyDeleteQMM
I like how he calls your Postcard Swap, "Twitter for Gentlefolks".
ReplyDeleteBoth of you are great artists!
I must say glad you don't cut hair as a career
ReplyDeleteFor what you'd put in there when one wasn't looking I'd fear...LOL
You and your twin played the game too
Alan is really spreading these postcard thing up the gazoo
Or should I say loo
Or bugger this or that to you
Never been to New York at all
Postcard made the building look rather ummmm tall
Fun exchange to read from the twins
Looks like everyone wins
I am so intrigued with the postcard art you created ~~~ lucky to have a faux twin as neat as Brian!
ReplyDeleteA twin...I can see the resemblance : ) This is a very fun idea. I'm going over to check out Waystation.
ReplyDeleteHelen ~ beautiful new profile picture! Yes, he's a fun faux twin. lol
ReplyDeletePat ~ you know if you came for a visit to NYC, we would all travel to meet you...just to shake your hand! lol...oh, you'd just LOVE that, wouldn't you! hahaha
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about The Shorty Awards - that's fantastic and just told Brian so. When I read Brian's work I feel I should give up pretending to be be able to write!
ReplyDeleteI love the postcards and I love even too that true friendships are formed when people have so much in common. Nice to have a twin!
Just wash your hands first..lol
ReplyDeleteI love the connections we make on blogs.
ReplyDeleteYes, I saw your picture on his blog. so funny and wonderful too.
ReplyDeleteBoth of your blogs are meaty delights.
Love Sf's comment too. Too funny. Ha. I was thinking the same in fact.
ReplyDeleteYep, gotta love twitter for gentle folk. I love both your writings. Or, I should say, I admire both of your writing. And nice hawk...
