i wonder what the “indications” were for snow and cold in 1912. No TV, radio, or weather websites! Maybe the Old Farmers Almanac!
I like those old postcards. Too bad people do not send them as much.
So true! I remember sending lots of postcards when I was a kid, especially when we were on vacation. It’s 34 cents to mail a postcard now!
