Mt. LeConte, Tennessee Swap

I received this postcard from Mt. LeConte in Tennessee. It is postmarked February 2, 2016. The sender wrote, "Hello! Sounds like you had a great 2015! Hope this year is even better for you! I live at the base of these mountains! So much fun to go tubing, hiking, and swimming in the summers! There is so much history in the mountains! It is so cool to go exploring and find old homes, towns, and artifacts! An hour drive there is this very cool rainbow you can see at night called a Moonbow! If you don't know about it, Google it!" Thanks for the postcard, Matt!

Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming

I received this postcard from one of my good friends, Evan. The postcard says, "The Teton Range is seen here reflecting in the calm waters. The Teton Range, the youngest mountains in the Rockies, is less than 10 million years old. The Gran Teton rises 7,000 feet about the valley floor and is the highest peak at 13,770 feet above sea level. Needless to say it makes a spectacular sight for onlookers." Thanks for the beautiful postcard for my graduation, Evan!

I'm doing some trail maintenance on the A.T. (Appalachian Trail) this weekend." The postcard is of the Mill Mountain in Roanoke, Virginia. Thanks for the postcard, Dave!

North Carolina

I received this postcard through Swap-bot. The postcard says "One of North Carolina's outstanding beauty spots is located on US No. 74 between Asheville and Charlotte, N.C. Fishing is good, recreational activities in the area include boating, swimming, golf, and horseback riding. The movie "Dirty Dancing" was filmed at this beautiful resort." The sender wrote, "Lake Lure is a nice place to visit during the summertime. They drain the lake down during the winter time." Thanks for the pretty postcard, Brett!
