About Me
- Christine H.
- I love antique postcards because they preserve evidence of everyday life as well as celebrations and sad events. Looking at an old postcard is like holding a single piece of a puzzle; we have to imagine the rest. I will try to put up a postcard every day. If you have a special request for a particular city or place, let me know!
Yes, I like it too! & I love corn on the cob in general.
ReplyDeleteI've missed visiting here. Your wonderful postcards never cease to amaze me.
I just read your post about the Dracula flower-sorry, I don't remember the exact spelling, but you are so funny! Thanks for my morning laugh!
Love it....I'm really starting to catch "folder fever"!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun street view!
ReplyDeleteOh yes--Iowa and corn! Love those folding postcards.
ReplyDeleteLocust Street - an address that may bug you after a while - sorry, couldn't resist ;)
ReplyDeletebut I'm intrigued as to the reason behind the street name.
Lisa, you're right, this may be a poor choice of names, but I'm guessing they're referring to the Locust tree rather than the insect. They probably should have chosen Oak, Spruce, or Maple instead.
ReplyDeleteThat folder has an attractive cover. I think the cover of folders is usually the best part.
ReplyDeleteDes Moines, first place I ever had a McDonald's. This was way before they had sold even 1 million. Alas, I did not have any corn. In fact, even the Coke was corn free. Imagine that!
ReplyDeleteIt is lovely corn. Meet you at the King Bowling Alley!
I would love a T-shirt with that pretty Iowa corn on it!
ReplyDeleteThe building behind the tall building in front, the one with the cupola is still standing. I think most all of the rest are gone. The Strand is definitely gone as they tore down all of the movie theaters downtown.
