If you've received a postcard from a sender who prefers to remain tantalizingly mysterious, you can still say thank you! Each month I'll have a post here called the BPS Café, where members can leave a comment and let another member know how much they appreciate the postcard they've received.

Hi Kelly,
Your postcard has an ocean voyage and then a cross country trip to make — give it until the end of the week. If it still doesn't show by then, please let me know.

Hi Ellie in BC, Canada,
Hope your lucky white alligator enjoyed good fortune himself on his travels to reach you, and that he is bringing you prosperity as well as a smile over the oddities of nature.
Best wishes,

Thank you Connecticut Cait!
Your buttony, bespeckled, Madonna-shine fruit-with-song-bird card arrived safe and sound and made me very happy.
A seriously cool card, indeed. :)

Hey Hakako from LA. Thanks for my postcard. I have a very desperate desire to go to Japan, so your postcard was very appropriate!

thanks, Larry, for your card from Ottawa - I would definitely wear plaid pants like the girl in the photo, though I'm easily more than twice her age!

Goodness, do I love your postcard. If we didn't have to send them back to Ms. Lori at the end of this great big art project, I'd already have it framed.
Be patient about your card... I was beginning to think that mine was NEVER coming when it showed up that one lovely day.

Thanks a million to Siobhan for my Hen Harrier postcard from Ireland! I love, love, love it! I tried to email you as soon as the card arrived, but my message did not go through. I must be misreading the email address you wrote on the card. If you'd like to contact me with your email address, you can do so through my blog: BethsTakeOnLife.blogspot.com.
Thanks again!

Hi Jasmin!
Thanks so much for the cheery postcard! I have a cousin in San Francisco and been meaning to get out that way for a visit. Your postcard just makes me want to go even more, AND especially check out Fisherman's Wharf!

Hello Cat,
I just got back from a very long Europe trip and if you are still waiting for your postcard please let me know.
I loved your handmade card, it is very cute, thanks a lot!!
Hi Katy from Tyler, Texas... received your cool map of Texas postcard on October 1! Peace and love back to ya! So pleased to receive it. Will post a photograph of the postcard on the BPS flickr site very soon.
All the very best,
Linda from Gatineau, Québec, Canada.
Katie Greenaway!
I finally felt well enough to get my printer cartridges (thanks to my sister!) and get a postcard printed out and ready for the mail. A friend will mail it tomorrow.
It will be WINGING it's way (as fast as Canada Post "wings" these days) to you then!
Thanks for your patience and I hope you understand. I still look like an extra from "Shawn of the Dead" but feel ever so much better.
Anneke
And thanks, Lori!
I am very sad :(
I sent my PostCard to Carrie in London one month ago and still have not heard if she has received it or not. I am worried... It would be nice to know one way or the other if it has been received or not. I may post what it looked like on my blog this afternoon. Thank you...
Still no September post card for Marianne in Hyannis but I'm hoping October will arrive soon!
Clare of the Genius Badges:
You *must* be the same Clare to whom I sent a postcard 10/1. My fingers are crossed as I was in a hotel in Gulfport/Biloxi, Mississippi and put it in their "out" box.
Thanks for the badges.

Many thanks to Charmagne in San Francisco and Marie in Brasilia for the lovely postcards! Thanks to these kind ladies, my bulletin board at work looks smashing!

Hi Hane, oops I misread your name as Marie by mistake! Love the postcard, will let you know as soon as the second one arrives.
very best,
Kneale
If Carrie in London reads this... and you still don't have your card, I posted a copy of what your postcard (sort of) looked like on my blog at www.bluejuniperberry.blogspot.com.
Kimmie from Los Angeles!!
Thank you for the postcard of Mickey and Minnie, it was very cute!! And in case you were wondering, everyone in Winnipeg loves cupcakes too. :)
Hi Teri! Carrie just emailed me — your postcard arrived today!!! She figures that the postal strikes currently going on in London were responsible for the long delay — but she's utterly thrilled to finally have it!
:-)
Hi- just wanted to give a belated Thank You to Sabrina in Ottawa for my super cool holographic bonanza postcard. I love holograms!
I will try to scan or photograph it for the flickr group, although I'm not sure if it will translate well.
Wondering if Rhianne in Leeds got my September card? Or if Erin in Brooklyn got the October card?
Hi Lori. Thank you for the lovely Carl Larsson postcard. I love it. Evening meals at our house are slightly more chaotic but we are definitely a happy bunch!
The flower arrangements on the table reminded me of my house growing up. My Mom always has fresh flowers around the house.
Thanks for bringing an extra smile to my day.
Sarah in Seattle,
Did you get my postcard? I am worried that it didn't arrive and hope it made it safely to you....I'll email the photo I took of it to Lori to send you if it hasn't made the trip.
Fiona
Hello to South Africa and Ireland! I was out of town but had no less than TWO BPS postcards in my held mail upon my return (Sept and Oct). The one from South Africa (Sept's) was not signed but I wanted to leave a note here to say thanks and that I loved the funny drawing on the front! Thanks!
Thank you Lori! Carrie did visit me on my blog to let me know! I do hope everyone else gets theirs too! The strike was a little unexpected snafu in this lovely plan!
Casey in Winnipeg,
If only bears with enormous cupcakes really *could* visit Winnipeg winter might be more fun! Your postcard arrived yesterday -- thanks for sending it!
Keri in MS
thank you Ona in Pipersville! I thought I'd posted my thank yous earlier. sorry. :)
