Letter #186 -- Postal Holiday

In the United States today there will be no postal service. The mail will not be delivered or picked up, and the post office counters will not be open. This is in continued observance of the nation's Independence Day, which was yesterday, July 4. Since that was a Sunday, a day when the post offices are normally closed, the postal workers get today off as a holiday.

So, for today's letter, write to someone who you can hand-deliver a letter to. Maybe it's someone in your household or someone in the neighborhood. If you're up to it, write a letter to someone and then drive over for a quick visit and deliver the letter.
