My 10/24/25 postcard captures a playful autumn scene from a yard on Solano Drive, a reimagined Cinderella’s carriage: a pumpkin turned into a button-framed coach, complete with a toy passenger, Jimi Hendrix at the reins, and two dark mice pulling the load. With coffee lids for wheels and a bed of straw beneath, bathed in soft morning light, the scene blends fairytale whimsy with homemade creativity, a touch of Halloween humor wrapped in childlike wonder.
