Greetings from Denver, Colorado, USA! By the time you're reading this, I will be on my second day in Denver, Colorado- The Mile High City!

Friday Favorites is a new feature on my blog. Rather than sharing all the postcards I've received throughout the week, I'll be sharing only my favorite ones. To see all the postcards I've received you can view my Collections on Flickr. Every postcard is special to me in their own way, but some just stand out!

This weeks Favorites will only be from Friday May 5-Wednesday May 10, since I am leaving for Denver early Wednesday morning (like, take-off at 6:55am early!).
