I'd Like To See That

I'd love to see a plane that big with skis, I'd also like to be able to climb a mountain that big. I guess I'll just have to look at Rebecca's lovely drawing and dream.

The card is also resplendent with haiku and this fantastic airmail sticker.

Letter-writing advice from Lewis Carroll:

Next, Address and Stamp the Envelope. “What! Before writing the Letter?” Most certainly. And I’ll tell you what will happen if you don’t. You will go on writing till the last moment, and, just in the middle of the last sentence, you will become aware that “time’s up!” Then comes the hurried wind-up--the wildly-scrawled signature--the hastily-fastened envelope, which comes open in the post--the address, a mere hieroglyphic--the horrible discovery that you’ve forgotten to replenish your Stamp-Case--the frantic appeal, to every one in the house, to lend you a Stamp--the headlong rush to the Post Office, arriving, hot and gasping, just after the box has closed--and finally, a week afterwards, the return of the Letter, from the Dead-Letter Office, marked “address illegible”!
