What better way to spend a Sunday than reading letters from interesting people? How about reading letters from interesting people and drinking tea and listening to Sarah Blasko?! Yes. That’s what I am doing right now. Here are this weeks’ hellos. Thanks so much to their senders. It’s so lovely to receive a letter. Thanks for sending me these!
Woah. A Museologist? I didn’t even know how to spell that until today. To be honest, I didn’t even know there was such a thing.
Museologist
noun
1. the systematic study of the organization, management, and function of a museum.
To be honest, I didn’t even know there was such a thing as Woodruff Ice Cream, either. I found out a bit more about that here. One thing I do know, is that Mary Poppins is a fabulous movie. I loved the parts where they mixed animation with real life. I also loved your postcard! Thanks Jenni!
I want to know what the Furry Dance is. If I could see the Furry Dance from my house, I know that my life would be much nicer.
Also, Donna, you sound like you are pretty busy with grandkids and cats. And books and boxes. I really like all those things, but I don’t have any grandkids at the moment. I keep trying to get some, but it doesn’t seem to work like that.
I think you will be MUCH happier in the new place. Let us know how you are going?
Barnwords sounds really cool, Lois. My computer wants to auto-correct it to Barnyards, but I am not going to let it. A nursery job for a garden lover? That sounds like a perfect match to me.
We are just edging into Winter here, as you ready yourself for Spring. Aren’t we lucky to have the seasonal shifts? Life would be so same-same if we didn’t. It rained all night here and was especially sleep-encouraging. (I went out last night to a friend’s gig and was a bit exhausted… I never go out!) I sometimes (actually often) have a bit of trouble sleeping in our noisy neighbourhood, so the rain was a lovely respite from that.
Thanks for writing all the way from Illinois, Lois! I love your hello and your paper hoarding ways!
I hope you liked sneaking a peek at this weeks’ letters. Are you enjoying #52hellos?

Hi Pip, sorry it’s taken me this long to check in on your blog. So glad my letter arrived, thanks for featuring it! I realised afterwards I wrote in length about my blog but never mentioned its name 😀 If you want to check it out, you can find it at http://www.museumdiary.com No Australian museums featured yet, but I do have a guest post series of ‘digital postcards’, if you’re ever tempted 😉 Thanks, Jenni
I loved reading those letters, Pip! Almost felt like I knew those ladies too. 🙂 I used to love getting letters from my parents, as Mum would write most of the letter and Dad would do a little sketch and add a few lines about the weather and his veggie garden. Of course, I still have them, they’re more precious now that they have passed on. Cheers, Janet
Thanks Pip! So fun to communicate through mail. Keep up the GREAT work. <3
You have at least two museologist readers, counting me 🙂
Hi Pip,
Loving this idea! Also, you’ve inspired me – I’ve just popped Sarah on too 😉 Have a lovely evening!
