Heebee Post #186 - Kit Gonzales Moore - Albuquerque, NM - USA

The "Life Center" is a spectacular and increasingly popular Heebee Attraction the whole family will love. As a group of folks embrace, their swirling thought-streams merge together and reveal a new understanding of each other's existence and role in the grand scheme of things. Perfect therapy for Family problems! You won't find anything like this in the 3-D real world!
"Dia de los Muertos" This shiny stamped and flattened tin medallion is a very cool way to celebrate this interesting holiday. It is celebrated Nov. 2, but it just arrived today (3rd)! This is a very festive Holiday and is a Heebee Island favorite!
Kit's debut on the Island is nothing short of fantastic! This colorful envelope is raising some attention here in the 4th and distant jungle drums are sounding off in her honor. Well done my friend - very nice! Although her website is under construction just now - you can still find out more about this fascinating Artist here: Kit's IUOMA page. Thank you very much!

Heebee Post #185 - David Berube - New York, NY - USA

This big fellow buzzed into 4th Dimensional skies this morning and Islanders were cheering as the "Berubian Bomber" descended onto the tarmac that was lined with smiling waving Locals.
Dave rejoins the Heebee fun with this glorious "Insecta Post" card. It's great, I love it! Love the reverse side too! Anybody that has ever received a postcard from this Artist knows how gorgeous they really are. Thank you very much. Find out more about these cards here: Berube Bugs

Heebee Post #184 - Walter Schlegel - Toledo, OH - USA

Okay - enough is enough! The Confuse-a-Tron Lounge's Halloween Hullabaloo for Inter-Dimensional Spooks and Witches is still in high spirits! Gotta admire the stamina! Go on home everybody! Geez!
Walter arrives in the 4th Dimension with his persistent Halloween party card. This kind of behavior is not uncommon here. Thank you and welcome to Heebee Island my friend.

Heebee Post #183 - Servane Morel - Brussels - Belgium

Happy Halloween! This festive occasion does not go unnoticed on Heebee Island. The Confuse-a-Tron Lounge hosts a real Halloween Bash! Ghosts, Goblins and Witches from the 3-D real world flock through Dimensional barriers to populate the bar stools and dance floors and catch up on things with their 4-D cousins. It's a ghastly Hullabaloo!Servane returns to Heebee Island on it's biggest Holiday with her spooky party guests and the Locals are thrilled. She runs a very fun and popular Mail Art site: Lettres d'Ailleurs. And she is a pleasure to know. Thank you Servane.

Heebee Post #182 - Giovanni Bonanno - Salerno - Italy

New photos from Trans-4-D Frontier Explorers reveal strange unstable Dimensional activity. Portholes to undiscovered other Dimensions? Heebee Jungle inhabitants refer to them as "snares" and report that getting too close to one of these will result in your complete vanishment! These "snares" are also known to wander and there is no way to know where they may appear next. These are no friend to the Heebee Explorers.
Giovanni visits Heebee Island with this beguiling evidence card. This card is actually rather large and encased in a thick sealed plastic shield. Very nicely done. He writes "Nervosismo Estremo" (extremely nervous) - a great way to describe this unstable mystery force! Thank you very much Giovanni and welcome to the 4th Dimension.

Heebee Post #181 - C.B. James - Vallejo, CA - USA

Nothing like a delightful drive down Heebee Jungle paths. These Hipsters are thoroughly enjoying themselves in their rented jalopy. Seen here, passing by the Island Resort's Dairyland, they are on a merry jaunt they won't soon forget.
Uh-oh! Damage control! C.B.'s lovely card ran into some Postal trouble on the way to the 4th Dimension. Thank you Postal workers for prying this little guy out of the teeth of the sorting machines! I love the rubber stamping here reading "You may have Art in your heart that you are unaware of"! A message to all Artists to harvest the wonderful languishing Art hidden deep within. Thank you very much!

Heebee Post #180 - Jennifer Zoellner - St. Petersburg, FL - USA

Heebee Jeebeeland is becoming, more and more, a wonderful get-away destination for children as well as adventure seeking adults. Kids all over the world are pleading, cajoling and even threatening their parents for a chance to spend a little time here. With a myriad of attractions and yummy treats - it is easy to see why!
A long time Island celebrity, Jen is back cavorting in the Confuse-a-Tron Lounge (her initials can be found carved into some of the party booths)! Love this card and that tasty looking Ice Cream and that cool "Done" rubber stamp. She has a new Mail Call: Mail & Sketch / UR Toy Story. Nice to see you back old friend.

Heebee Post #179 - Brent Leopold - Camp Hill, PA - USA

Bag packed and ready to for Inter-Dimensional travel. Upon arrival on Heebee Island, many guests like to make a secure copy of their mind (see below) in case of losing a portion ,or all of it, during their stay in the 4th Dimension. Particularly the late evenings at the Confuse-a-Tron lounge. "Mental Insurance" is inexpensive and recommended.
An exact replica of the mind will be on hand should the guest be the worse for wear and tear if the excitement becomes too much for them. Brent Leopold returns to the 4th with this lovely travel tip postcard. And I love the blue valise! Thank you very much my friend - great to see ya again! Find Brent here: Leopold Front Pocket.

Heebee Post #177 - Jennlui - Ottawa, Ontario - Canada

In an effort to ensure visitor's safety and comfort, the Confuse-a-Tron Lounge will sometimes adorn their walls with maps of certain guest's 3-D home areas to serve as a sort of reference point check . The 4th Dimension can bring about unbridled fun into folks and some can get just a little over the edge. A glimpse now and again of their origin in the 3-D real world can have a relevant and sobering effect.
These blank Artistamp "frames" are really cool and Jennlui (and others) will see what I do with them very soon. I can't resist them - like little puzzles waiting to be solved!
This really is a nicely constructed bit of Mail Art. Well done Jennlui! Thank you very much - and you should be hearing from me any moment now (sent a few days ago)! Check out this interesting Artist: Jennlui Letter Art

Heebee Post #176 - Carlos Botano - Coruna - Spain

Heebee Archeologists are scratching their heads over this unusual fossil specimen found in the remote Trans-4-D Frontier. 4th Dimension Chaos Evolution Theory is like solving a puzzle that has too many pieces. Time and space on Heebee Island doesn't always conform to 3-D real world standards, so that de-evolution and evolution are inter-twined and results from this often creates single generation species.
Carlos returns to Heebee Island with this exquisite relic from ancient 4-D times. His Artistamp is also very nice and displays his grand sense of humor. Thank you very much Carlos. You can find this Artist holding court here: Carlos Botana Mail Art . Great to see you here again my friend.

Heebee Post #175 - Chepin Mora Alonzo - San Francisco, CA - USA

This splendid parade of merrymakers appeared in the 4th Dimension this morning. Note the glee on their faces! Wonderful! Heebee Island is a powerful magnet for wayward 3-D real world refugees. These cheery folks will be feeling that "I'm finally home" sensation almost immediately. Welcome my friends!
Chepin makes a strong point here. The spirit of Heebee Jeebeeland is further from the 3-D real world in some regards than it is dimensionally apart.
Chepin sent in this great looking Mail Art package, hard clear instructional plastic envelope adorned in various stickers (check her hastily scribbled in faux postage stamp added on at the last moment to meet requirement)! Heh. Nice. This card is interestingly constructed as well. Love it! Thank you very much Chepin. She can also be found here: Chepin's IUOMA page.

Heebee Post #174 - William L. Philyaw - Shawnee, KS - USA

In a grand effort to explore the vast and diverse terrain of the Trans-4-D Frontier, these rugged robotoid explorer drones ("Docmechs") were created. Their sensors are constantly sending back images and data so that Heebee scientists will be better able to understand the puzzling nature and existence of the 4th Dimensional Territories. Beautiful Robot postage as well.
Professor Philyaw's fantastic scientific achievements continue to herald in new concepts of 4th Dimensional realities. He plays a very important role in the brilliant Heebee Think Tank and Island scientists thank their lucky stars that he is here.
It is always such a delight to have William on the Island. This postcard is amazing and Heebee Jeebeeland loves it! Thank you very much my friend - I just sent something to you yesterday - right before I found this Gem in my Post Box. Once again, he adorns his envelope with lovely vintage postage. Very nice. Want to see more superb Art by this interesting fellow? Philyaw Art and William's Mail Art collection: Addressee .

Heebee Post #173 - Katerina Nikoltsou - Thessaloniki - Greece

Get those cameras ready everybody! The majestic Tower of Power stands high above Heebee Island and is the crown achievement of Tower City, the capital of the 4th Dimension. This fantastic engineering feat is one of the great wonders of Heebee technology and a very popular visitor's destination here
The Tower's allure is powerful and, as you can see, a large crowd is almost always present here. This monolithic structure stands superbly surreal against the cosmic Heebee sky and Island guests often cheer in unison as they gaze upon it! Also known as the "Friendship Tower" because a wonderful togetherness that is felt by those in attendance. The hugging and shaking of hands among perfect strangers here is a cultural phenomenon not known in the 3-D real world.
Katerina returns to the 4th Dimension with this grand series of Tower City highlights. Thank you very much for these beauties. She is also very busy with the Mail Art Greece 2009 show. Great job!

Heebee Post #172 - Roxanne Clark - Taos, NM - USA

Well folks, it's finally happened. The incredible freedom of the 4th Dimension is now known to be a "Go to" destination for desperate riff-raff on the run! It is still the days of the "Wild Frontier" as far as Heebee Jeebeeland and fanciful flight is concerned and these criminals very well may run free for the rest of their lives, peacefully, in this vast 4-D jungle realm. These are wanted poster ATCs to be hung in the Heebee Post Office. Like that is going to do any good - Bounty Hunters are not taken kindly to, here on the Island, and no one else here really cares - as long as they mind their own business.......... Thank you Roxanne - Love these little devils!
