February 2016 NA RR - Cambray Farm House

Amanda resent me a card for the February North America Round Robin since her first one never showed up.  Not only was that very kind she managed to send one of the prettiest postcards ever!   Love this postcard of Cambray's Farmouse in Cotswolds.  <3

February 2016 NA RR - Glendive

At first Glendive was a great hunting and fur trading town. In the year 1880 Northern Pacific Railroad caused the people to crowd in the area.  It has had the title of being a cattle empire. It also is famous for Moss Agate found in the area of the Yellowstone River.

All that information gleaned from the back of the card.  The only thing I didn't know was where the heck Glendive is.  So my bff Google informed me it's in Montana.

I really love this card!!  Thanks, Michele!

Aloha Motel and Restaurant, Rochester, NY.  Dine in a Paradise transplanted from the South Seas beside a beautiful blue shimmering pool and palm shaded Hawaiian bridge.  Exotic tropical drinks.  Private parties accommodated.  Take out orders specially prepared. Single rooms, double rooms, efficiencies.
