About Me

UPDATE OCT 2024: Been seeing some great concerts : Pam Tillis, Fab Four, Wynonna, Nelson and Winger, Alice Cooper and Foreigner with Loverboy.. Planning on Alice Cooper's Christmas Pudding and our cruise at the end of January... *****PLEASE use my plus four on my address. So many lost pieces of mail. Trying to do this for everything now. ONE NOTE: I prefer not to receive 3 x 5 cards in swaps unless they are linens, cats or large letter linens.

I am anxiously awaiting The Hollywood Vampres documentary. Got to see Jeanne Du Barry with Johnny Depp. It was awesome! Also Puffins will be coming to theatres in the US


Rock on!


My brother passed away in 2016. My mom in 2018 and my Dad in 2020. PLEASE keep in touch with those far away. You never know...I made it to my 50th class reunion. My name is armadillogal...I live in New Mexico now but I was born and raised a cheesehead in Wisconsin. I am a diehard Packers fan!

All my kids have four feet and fur.

Postcards

** I prefer my postcards NOT written on and sent in an envelope but if it's a stamped swap I acknowledge that and swap accordingly**

PLEASE though if you are sending them with other things in an envelope put them between cardboard so they don't get bent. It makes me sad when cards are ruined by this.

  • Prefer cats, manatees, valentines, zoos, other holiday cards, wolves, polar bears, hot air balloons, night city views, rock formations, castles, caves, space, native americans, waterfalls, sunsets, lightning, wild life, recipes, star trek, black and white art cards, old cars, route 66, old west, lions, tigers, all wild cats, great architecture, NPCW, classic rock singers, country singers, castles, rocks and minerals, neon signs, and unusual scenics...

  • No WIS, TX or NM cards unless you ask first-I have tons as I live in NM...No stadiums, maps, nudes, tear outs, 3 x 5's unless in my prefs...

  • PLEASE rate the swaps I send so I know you received. I never flake and if something gets lost I will try to replace it...I pride myself in being a faithful swapper.

Favorite Books

Mysteries, Native American, biographies, cats, Star Trek, some series books like Monk, Diane Mott Davidson, Castle, Murder She Wrote, J.A. Jance, Sneaky Pie Brown, Laura Childs scrapbooking books, Sheila Roberts, Susan Mallery, Garfield, Michael McGarrity, J.D. Robb etc. I love the Longmire series by Craig Johnson. I have them all except the kindle ones.

Favorite Music

This is Tate Stevens... In 2013 I won a contest to go meet him. We also saw him in Arizona and met him there too. I saw him in Farmington for my birthday! I did this diamond painting of him from one of my pictures. Aaron Tippin is a long time favorite. I met Kathy Mattea as well as Billy Ray Cyrus. I like country music, classic rock, native american, and some pop, especially female artists. Wynonna, Billy Ray Cyrus, Craig Wayne Boyd, Lance Miller, Lonestar, Diamond Rio, Miranda Lambert, Jo Dee Messina, Tina Turner, The Band Perry, Little Big Town, Lady Antebellum, Kathy Mattea & Sugarland are among my top faves. Recently saw GARTH.....and previously enjoyed Sawyer Brown, Merle Haggard, Brad Paisley and Robert Mirabal. I enjoyed Phillip Phillips on Idol and loved him in concert in Las Cruces. It was great meeting him in Albuquerque! My first ever concert was the Jackson 5.

My favorite heavy metal performer is Alice Cooper.

The person I've seen the most is Ricky Lynn Gregg who is a country rocker from Texas.

Favorite Television

I am into Star Trek (Vulcan)RIP LEONARD NIMOY...

Longmire , The Voice, America's Got Talent, NCIS, Grey's Anatomy, American Ninja Warrior, Rizzoli & Isles, Cold Case, In Plain Sight, Providence, The Good Wife, Drew Barrymore..........I grew up watching the Monkees and in the 90's I was hooked on Renegade, Highlander & Silk Stalkings. I recently found Firefly....I love it...and the Serenity movie...I want MORE!!! I like to make altered art...

Love is...

Comment: I used to geocache! My favourites were swag size caches in great shape on trails like the Cedar Creek Trail. I checked the trail on google, did you know there's a streetview walk? It's quite similar to some trails where I live. Nice photos. I especially like the autumn displays in Rosemont and Cloudcroft. Thanks so much for sharing and for contacting me to check if I got your email.🍂🍁🍃🎃

Comment: Thank you for the PC. I love chihuly glass, and had a membership at the chihuly gardens and glass gallery under the space needle in Seattle for a year. I haven't seen any of these performers live! I'd be most likely to see Pat Benetar.
