Just moments ago, I reached another Postcrossing landmark when card number 11,000 was registered. In just over 12 years of this hobby, I have sent 11,000 cards to 118 countries around the world. (I've actually written and mailed many more cards, but those that become "expired" - i.e., lost in the mail or simply not registered by their recipients numbers in the hundreds) Currently, I rank 27th among 75,692 Postcrossing members in the USA in terms of sent cards. And I rank #1 in Alabama. I simply don't allow myself to think about what I've spent on postcards and postage stamps over these twelve years; but hey, everyone has got to have a hobby, right? Card number 11,000 went to Postcrossing member mailin4u, otherwise known as Cindy, in northern Virginia, USA. Cindy is a relative Postcrossing novice, with only 1,297 sent cards. But it's all one big happy postcard-sending family. Write on!
