Hallmark Visitor Center

 After nearing losing my ears yesterday I decided it was an inside day.  I went to Crown Center to the Hallmark Visitor Center.


It's nice and toasty inside.  I love Hallmark so I was looking forward to this.


The pansy card is one of the first mother's day cards.

Emmy Award for best commercial.

After the museum and gift shop I wanted to get a picture of the mayor's Christmas tree.

I had a blast.  I think the Hall Brothers' story is amazing.  They were able to start with postcards  then move to greeting cards to ornaments and television.  This company really seems to imagine all the possibilities.  I mean - they make up holidays!  And we buy the cards to support it.  

Everyone seems to happy here at Hallmark.  It really was a joy.  No problems today with Google Maps.  She was well behaved.

Until our next adventure.
