In 1994 or 1995, my brother and his girlfriend visited my mother in Atlanta*. They went to Stone Mountain and had a custom postcard made. They sent this postcard to me while I was living in Prescott, Arizona. Earlier this year, I scanned it. Today, I share it with you.


* My mother is also my brother’s mother, but not my brother’s girlfriend’s mother, which is to say that my brother’s girlfriend is not also his, or my, sister. Ditto for my/our father, who did not go to Stone Mountain and does not appear on this postcard.
