This is the second postcard series I've sent out. I sent them to friends that I knew, my old-fashioned, real-world friends; and to friends that I only know from the internet, that my husband calls my "imaginary internet friends." That's why there are sometimes two different kinds of postcards in this series, one set for people who knew me in real life and another set for people who had never been to southern Illinois.

Since I completed this series, I have actually met some of my imaginary internet friends, and they aren't imaginary any more!
