Glad to hear this. I know when Don was first around, he did an excellent job, then everything turned south. Not sure if it was supply issues or what. It's all documented here somewhere. Happy to hear he's back in form.

Regarding USPS, at least around here, they use mostly contract employees and part time folks in their own cars for much of the delivery. Can't remember the last time I saw someone in a USPS uniform in a shiny white truck. The LLV's (mail trucks) are limping along at best, and half broke most of the time. My buddy is a part time parcel deliverer (mostly retired) and when he does use an LLV, he'll end up stranded and need a tow, making the mail and parcels late or undelivered......yet stamps keep going up. It's a sorry state of affairs, to be sure. We do have a new mail carrier and he's still learning the route. Lots of errors. I'd say twice a week we have our neighbors mail.
