Social Studies Post Card Project
A friend's daughter is doing a social studies project and they are tracking where the post cards are coming from and how many. I figured I would tap into a huge network across the world by asking for some help here.
You don't win anything. Nothing is going to happen if you don't help but I do know that this is a legitimate project.
If you would like to send a postcard please send me an email at [email protected] and I will email you the snail mail address.

any other takers?
Any other takers? I have had a few people email me. Leanne has forwarded to me her spreadsheet she is using to track where the postcards are coming from and who sent them. She really is taking this project seriously.
All it takes is a quick note on the back of the postcard. There are always lots of postcards being sold at the airport

Do they want cards from home or away or it doesn't matter?
And when is the project over?
I don't have any interesting destinations in my near plans
I could send an interesting postcard from an uninteresting
destination, though

She lives in Bush, Louisiana so coming into New Orleans for the day is "big deal" to them!

I'll help
Rachel, send me her address. I'll send at least one from Europe next week. Oh, and I can easily send a San Diego one. The spreadsheet comment did me in - I can just imagine me as a bespectacled child doing the same.

By the way
Thanks for pointing out to me what an insignificant town I live in, I can't even find a postcard. 
Not to worry, there are still a couple of other places to look, and since I work in Manhattan, that's a piece of cake to get one.
