Mail-less Monday coming

To my readers in the USA, this just occurred to me so I'll share it with you: keep in mind that because July 4 falls on a Sunday this year, the postal holiday will be Monday, July 5. That's right - a no-mail Monday! At least this means Tuesday will be a whopper day for letters and postcards.

US Mail service woes

I just read this very enlightening post at one of my very favorite letter blogs, the Letter Writers Alliance.

I don't know what to do about it except encourage people to keep writing letters and sending mail. I admit I'm a little worried. I DON'T want to see delivery fall to 5 days a week; I know I'm in the minority here, but I'd rather pay more for stamps.
