Sunday Stamps: the Letter "U"

 Hello and welcome to my blog.  It is a beautiful June day in the American Midwest.

It's time for Sunday Stamps, and this week it's the letter "U".

I have a stamp from the US Postal Service, for the Underground Railroad:

That is Harriet Tubman on the stamp.

I am reminded of fellow students in 6th grade, doing a project and presentation on the Underground Railroad.  They thought it was an actual physical railroad, sort of like a subway (not reading their sources too closely).  I had to tell them it was a network of people, transferring runaway slaves from house to house or other sanctuary.  These were known as stations.  Luckily, I did this before their oral presentation and writing their report!

Sunday Stamps: the Letter "T"

 Good day, and welcome to my blog.

It's a warm humid cloudy day in the American Midwest, and it may rain later.  Now though it's time for Sunday Stamps.

We are up to the letter "T" in our tour of the alphabet.  SeeitonaPostcard has shared Tulip stamps, and I have a Tulip stamp too, from the US Postal service:

I also am sharing this Thank You stamp from the USPS:
