An Apache Indian Papoose

Postcard postmarked Phoenix Arizona, March 1956

The new neighbors aren’t really all that new. It’s been 3 years since we moved and Katerina has made many new friends. One of her new friends came up to me today in the Nordic Museum cafe and we had a friendly chat about his dog and our former cat and other neighborhood goings on. Ballard is a friendly place!!

After a hiatus for the summer, the local postcard club will be meeting soon. As August is on the wane and the children/grandchildren are heading back to school and the pattern of life for the Fall swings in to action. Roll on September.
