Direct Swap - Val from USA

In early July I connected with Val to see if she had a map of her home state of Illinois. She was happy to send me a card, however never followed up with my requests for her address. Either way much appreciated! Funny thing this is the first card I received with a "postage due" stamp on it. I have often wondered as some countries you get cards from have completely different amounts on them but they still somehow arrive. No one asked me for the $.53 cents so I guess I get to keep it!
