As a Postcrossing member for more than 13 years, I've eagerly (but hopefully not obnoxiously) spread the word about my hobby. Along the way, I've convinced a handful of family and friends to join me in sending postal mail to random strangers around the world. But in sending nearly 13,000 postcards to randomly assigned people, it was only this week that for the first time I sent a card to someone I know in real life. This rare card didn't go too far- just to Jacksonville, Florida to an old friend from my college days. But in sending this first ever card to someone who is not a total stranger, I achieved another first in this hobby that has occupied so much of my time. Write on!
