OFFICIAL Card - USA
Harriette lives in Nova Scotia and winters in Florida. She sent this card to me just as she was starting to travel south last November. She used to live in Mississauga which is very close to me and said she has been to my town - Caledon - often.
I had to do a double take! I opened the entry which was titled USA and saw Halifax! I kept thinking 'is there a city that looks like Halifax in the US?' and then I saw the write up. lol!
Yes, Snowbirds is a very common phrase here and one you hear often. They have to come back at certain intervals (I don't know how fequently) to keep their health insurance up.
That stamp was from last year but I've go my ladies in the Post Office looking into it to see if they can get any :)

ReplyDeleteProbably only on your first cup of coffee too! :)
DeleteWe call people who live in Canada & winter in Florida "snowbirds." :) Have you heard this term before?
ReplyDeleteP.S. I LOVE that cute bunny stamp! Is that stamp still available?
