Heebee Post #59 - Ed Buddz - W. Chicago, IL - USA

Since Heebee Island is a family vacation destination, there are many children's attractions and diversions here for them to enjoy. Once such Island favorite, among the children, is called "Dead End". This 4th Dimensional maze is actually alive and changes shape and pathways about every 5 - 10 minutes. Made of an organic "stone tissue" the labyrinth seems to sense when a participant is nearing the finish exit and changes the wall structures, so that it is nearly impossible to escape once you begin. An overhead crane is used for child removal when desperate cries of frustration are heard. The Island is thrilled to have Ed back on it's shores once again. His cool envelope is like a conundrum,  that "as the crow flies, the 4th Dimension is both very near and yet, so very far away". Love this stuff! Thanks Ed for another interesting submission. 

Heebee Post #58 - Wilma Duguay - Bonaventure, QC - Canada

The phantom-like coastline of Heebee Island, obscured in a 4th Dimensional mist, has an allure that is almost irresistible to nearly all adventure minded people with vacation time on their hands. The Island, aptly entitled "Dreamland" in this picture, is almost too beautiful to be true. But, if you had to check one of 3 boxes, True, False, or Other, would it be "True" or would it be "Other"? If it is "Other" then does that mean it's not "True" and therefore "False"? Or is it "True" because it's too good to be "Other"? This is pondered and can often be a topic of discussion by the guests in the Confuse-a-Tron Lounge over and over again. 
In her note, Wilma includes "scary" and "Creepy". Well, yes, it would be difficult to argue against that aspect, but that is not the spirit of Heebee Island. Those are merely preconceptions and are only incidental here. Unbridled adventure is , moreover, the premise here. Without some scary and creepy things, the excitement is not felt in it's wondrous entirety. To answer your question Wilma, I would say you are very near indeed! Thanks for this great card my dear.

Heebee Post #57 - Brent Leopold - Camp Hill, PA - USA

Some of the Wildlife here on the Island can be mistakenly intimidating. Take the common Barkfly for instance, shown here coming out of it's larvae stage. In actuality, this harmless but vicious looking caterpillar will transform into a stunningly beautiful flying insect once it's wings develop as it matures.
One activity that is catching on quickly, here on the Island, is fossil collecting. In the 4th Dimension, species can be created only to quickly become extinct, compared to it's 3-D reality world counterpart. Because of this "hyper-evolution", there are many fossil remains of creatures not now seen alive on Heebee Island. The puzzling evidence is collected, recorded and placed in the Jeebee Museum for viewing by Fossil enthusiasts. This particular one looks like a H.R.Giger painting. Very interesting.It is not unusual to hear strange sounds during your happy stay in the 4th Dimension. Quirky unexplained noises can often sound like the whispering voices of loved ones, friends, acquaintances and the dear departed.   
The above items arrived today in this great painted Heebee envelope. Thanks Brent for your great art! The Island is always glad to have you visit, especially when you deliver your particular brand of oddities. Find more about Brent here: www.myspace.com/frontpocket

Heebee Post #56 - R.F. Cote - Quebec, QC - Canada

There is plenty of geological phenomena to marvel at on Heebee Island. "Nucleus Mounds", such as the one shown above, have been discovered to be, in fact, giant amoeba cells that can lay dormant for years or move so slowly that  they are wrongly believed to be hills. Guests walking on these "Hills" are sometimes surprised by the "earthquakes" when they shift with occasional movement.Island locals are glad to see Reg back in the 4th dimension with this very interesting "Giant Amoeba Card". It has a nice feel to it as well. We like that "MAN RAY - RAY JOHNSON" artistamp seen here too. Thanks so much for this postcard! Reg has a wonderful and very popular mail art site that you can visit here: rfcote.blogspot.com and also have a look at his other brilliant site: circulaire132.blogspot.com

Heeebee Post #55 - Wilma Duguay - Bonaventure, Quebec - Canada

Anybody that has spent anytime in the International Union of Mail Artists website, has certainly seen this glorious picture. The vibrant, ecstatic zeal of this Artist can easily be felt and seen here as she stands in front of a fabulous Heebee sunset. The fourth dimension can bring about the simple joy of life with it's awesome beauty.
It's off to Heebee Jeebeeland for Wilma as she stands willingly ready for her Trans-4D journey to Island Paradise. She also mentions "the Cotton Picker" in her note. She refers to my cool and imperious cat, which, even as I write this, is sleeping, loyally, in back of my keyboard. If you visit my page on the IUOMA website ( iuoma-network.ning.com/profile/TestTower) you will see me holding him.  Thanks so much Wilma for this great and inspirational  card.

Heebee Post #54 -Jennie Hinchcliff - San Francisco, CA - USA

A 4-D Dream Activity Card is given to each Island guest as part of a gift pack upon their arrival to the Island.  These souvenir cards, such as the one seen here, are placed under the guests pillow before falling asleep. The card will evolve into an interesting piece of personal art and dreamy memories. These wonderful cards, available only in the 4th Dimension, will be a great conversation piece for years to come back in the 3-D reality world.
Yes, the Scouts are here! There are some fantastic Island camping sites exclusively reserved for Boy and Girl Scouts. Please consider Heebee Jeebee Island for your local Troop as it just may be the highlight of their young lives and something they will never forget. Thank you Jennie for this gorgeous postcard. A really cool piece of Mail Art from a very cool person. You can find Scout Girl Hinchcliff here: www.podpodpost.com/gallery.html 

Heebee Post #53 - William L. Philyaw - Shawnee, KS - USA

These two characters, shown here smiling charmingly for the camera, are actually rough and seasoned Trans-4D Frontier Guides. They are currently being sought for questioning for some mischievous minor damage done to one of the Island Dimension Stabilizers (seen behind them) a short time after this picture was taken. After a long while on the Frontier and a long night in the Confuse-a-Tron Lounge, it seems these two fellows may have gotten a little carried away with themselves.
William is back on the Island with his very cool "Denizens of  HBJB Land". Love this interesting postcard and also am really enjoying the wonderful display of great looking vintage U.S. Postage. Thanks for the adventurous imagination applied to that card my friend.: Find William's mail art site here:  addressee.blogspot.com/

Heebee Post #52 - Dewi - Toronto, BC - Canada

A look behind the scenes in the Confuse-a-Tron Lounge. Employees puff, chat and drink coffee while on their "smokebreak" after serving a busy and sumptuous luncheon to the smiling Island guests.
One of Dewi's many enjoyable mail art "Cafe Sketches". He writes: "Hello from Canuckland". Hi Dewi and thank you for for this candid look at the reality of this 4th Dimensional Island. Check out what he is up to here: cafesketch.blogspot.com and here:

Heebee Post #51 - Megan Sandover-Sly - Saanichten, BC - Canada

This rare and mysterious "Sheet Tablet" is one of only several that have ever been discovered by exploring pioneers out deep into the endless horizon of the Trans-4D Frontier. Heebee Island Scientists are almost completely confounded by the Extra-Dimensional  language recorded upon these curious items and are working diligently to decipher their meaning and determine their importance in understanding more of this uncanny region. Thanks Megan for your very intriguing mail art. Like to see more of Megan's work? Check here:

Heebee Post #50 - Carlos Botana - A Coruna - Spain

A grand view of the vast and mind bendingly beautiful Trans-4D Frontier in all of it's astonishing and surrealistic splendor. Those brave souls exploring this inter-dimensional region refer to this immense mystery realm as "The Edge". Unpredictable and unstable, this area is host to phenomena that can often be beyond our senses to comprehend and react to. It is wholly unknown as to what could exist beyond this. Scientific study here is known to be dangerous and even sometimes deadly.
Carlos has created some very cool and imaginative artistamps. I also see he has a keen sense of humor (see above "Tex Tower"). Nice.....Thank you very much for your Island visit Carlos. Love that card! See what else he is up to: artecorreo2009.blogspot.es and carlosibotana.blogspot.es

Heebee Post #49 - Keith Buchholz - St. Louis, MO - USA

This gorgeous A4 sized vintage travel magazine, from Fluxus/St.louis, shows just how long the popularity and intrigue of Heebee Island has captured the public's interest. The colorful cover boasts "Sex crazed Art Colony waits for you" and many here have found that to be, in fact, true to a degree. The 4th Dimension is a wonderful playground for all types of activities and the uninhibited atmosphere of the Island does lend itself as a perfect "arena" for such physical delights. Visitors should, however, exhibit discretion in these matters as this is a family vacation destination. Keith also writes this cryptic message: "If he's got a face, he'll want a Heebee Jeebee". One can only speculate on his meaning. Thank you Keith for this very cool and entertaining art. For information regarding this artist: www.blogger.com/profile/08749723050854486743

Heebee Post #48 - Jennifer Zoellner - St. Petersburg, FL - USA

Fe-Mail Artist Jennifer Zoellner returns to the Island and this lucky girl is quickly becoming the envy of the other guests by having contracted the Jeebee Measles. What a wonderful time she will have as everyone here knows this experience is no "calamity" or "illness". In fact, it is quite the contrary. Even a few hours of Jeebee Measles will enhance your intellect and physical beauty. Upon returning to our 3-D reality, your friends and family will marvel at the "new you". Island visitors regard this as similar to winning the lottery. Lucky girl indeed! 
Here she writes "Let's do it. Let's be Mail Artists"! Well, I can understand her zeal for Mail Art since it has made her more beautiful and much smarter! We really like the "Fe-Mail Artist" artistamp and also that other artistamp "Ritalin - So much easier than parenting",  which I suspect may have been of Wackystuff origin. Thanks Jen for this great card! Folks, have you "Chromatophored" yet? Find her fabulous project

Heebee Post #47 - Art Tower - Aschaffenburg - Germany

The Heebee Tattoo Center, located inside the Confuse-a-Tron Lounge, is becoming more popular every day. These interesting renderings are from actual experiences and adventures that are enjoyed while vacationing here on the Island. Everyone can take home a "permanent souvenir" to proudly show off to their friends and loved ones.  
So, to answer your inquiry AT - Yes indeed!  Not only are tattoos allowed, but moreover, greatly encouraged! These marvelous images look superb back in the real world and you will have fun explaining each one for years to come.  Thanks for your friendly and frequent visits here Gunter. We love your cards! There is more of this interesting Artist here: www.arttower.de/

Heebee Post #46 - Ed Buddz B - W.Chicago, IL - USA

There is no sense in making Heebee Jeebeeland seem completely without some terrifying aspects. The evidence for this can be found all over the Island. Usually these "Fright Field" areas are marked with a warning indicator like this beautiful example above. These "fields" are not for the faint hearted and it is recommended that children be accompanied by an adult when seeking adventure in these areas. 
We are glad to see Ed back in the 4th Dimension with these great drawings showing the other side of life here on the Island. We like the Mail Art stickers too. Thanks Ed for your "Dark Side" art. Heebee Island has an ongoing reputation for being very receptive to creepy submissions and this is a splendid example.

Heebee Post #45 - Art Tower - Aschaffenburg - Germany

Interesting art from Art Tower showing the "Heebee" and the "Jeebee". Similar to the "Yin" and the "Yang" of our 3-D reality world, these icons depict the mind's ongoing polarities of thoughts and actions here in the 4th Dimension.  The "5 Jeepes" under the Icons are mysterious and their roles are still not entirely understood. 
Thank you Gunter for your quick return to the Island with this second great card. We love frequent visitors and are always happy to accomodate friends of the 4th Dimension. That is a cool looking IUOMA sticker too. There are more of Gunter's efforts here: www.arttower.de/
