Shortly
before we started our journey, I discovered that the US
Post Office had issued a set of stamps featuring "Greetings
from..." each state of the Union. I decided that one of our
projects should be creating and mailing ourselves a postcard from
each state featuring something that represented the state on the
front (which sometimes was a simply a sign), and, of course, the
corresponding stamp on the back. Below is a gallery of the cards
so far. In some states, for instance Mississippi, we literally pulled
off the highway, took the picture, printed in out and begged a cashier
at Office Depot to mail it, all in less than one hour.
