Stamp Collecting

The summer has given me time to update my collection. For people who don't bother with stamps, this series might seem exhotic.

Begun in 1999, the stamps are geered to highlight some of the most amazing places in the United States vis a vis natural beauty. Aren't they simply lovely in this collage? Created for over-seas consumption, they highlight many of the most amazing vacation sites that this nation have to offer. I have been to three of them: 1) 60¢ Mount Desert Island, Maine, 2) 69¢ Okefenokee Swamp, Georgia/Florida, and 3) 75¢ Great Smokey Mountains, Tennessee/North Carolina.

The next issue is a 94¢ of the beach at St. John's U.S. Virgin Islands. I might audaciously suggest future issues for Sleeping Bear Dunes, Michigan; Mammoth Caves, Kentucky; and/or Arches National Park south of Moab, Utah.

Hoping you find time to explore your interests and pursue your collections.
