"My Life on Wheels" is my autobiography as it relates to the various vehicles in my life (whether I have owned them or ridden in them or on them).  The story is told in a unique way: via USA "personalized postage" stamps.

The tricky part in creating this pictorial autobiography of "my life on wheels" was being able to find appropriate photographs ! In a few instances, I've had to take freeze frames from videotapes in order to obtain the images. Unless otherwise mentioned, all pictures are of the actual vehicles that I have owned; except for pictures from when I was very young, all pictures were taken by me (or a family member) unless otherwise mentioned.  From childbirth to present day, vehicles in my life are included; this can mean anything from my personal cars & motorcycles, to tricycles as a child, to rental cars as an adult and to things I might have seen because my mode of transportation took me there.

This project has been fun, in that it has allowed me to remember parts of my life that I might otherwise have forgotten about. 

The project was made into a stamp exhibit and has been shown at the two yearly stamp shows/exhibitions in the Dallas / Ft. Worth metroplex (the TEXPEX shows in the spring and the Mid-Cities Stamp Club EXPO in November during the early 2000's).

The "personalized postage" stamps used in my stamp exhibit & eBook were sold by four vendors:

• "PhotoStamps" by http://photo.stamps.com
• "PictureItPostage" by http://www.endicia.com 
• "Zazzle Stamps" by http://www.zazzle.com/pcelias
• YourStamps (no longer active)

--> The USPS shut down the "personal postage" program in June 2020.  While stamps.com still sells "NetStamps" and Zazzle.com still sells various products, no new U.S. "personal postage" can be purchased at this time.
