Postcards and/or Hunger

We are in the middle of National Postcard Week, from Sunday, May 6, through Saturday, May 12.  Do you ever sent postcards?  Are you a collector?  Can you remember receiving a special postcard?  People used to call these "penny post cards" because it cost a penny to mail one, as you can see by the photo below (click to enlarge).  Sending a postcard today will cost you 32-cents postage.

And one more thing — Saturday, May 12th, is the day to Stamp Out Hunger.  Just fill a bag with non-perishable items and set it out beside your mailbox.  This is the 20th year, since letter carriers first picked up food donations in 1992.  Have you ever taken part in this food drive?  This video has more information.  (The video is also online, here.)
