Thanks for sharing, Brenda and thank you so much for popping by my blog:) Enjoy Toothpick Day, lol...
Hello Louise, I love the fact that there is such a thing as National Toothpick Day! lol
I guess there is not much else to see in North Dakota, so why not a giant cow! :)
Maybe that is why I have so few postcards from there Kristin, there is nothing else to see ;-)
Whoa, wait a sec. There's lots to see in North Dakota, but then again, I guess it depends on what a person likes to see. :)
ONeal - you like to see roads. Of course they have lots of those to see! hahahaha
Pffffffft.
