You've Got Mail

There's something special about receiving old fashioned mail via the U.S. Postal Service. I really take delight in walking down our front steps and opening our mailbox; rummaging amongst the unsolicited mail and stacks of catalogs, and finding the occasional letters, notes, and postcards that many of you often send. That was the case this weekend. A note from a dear friend was waiting for me there. The sweetest little thing which traveled over 2000 miles away brought a smile and joy to my heart.

So here is where it was...

and here is where I sat...

reading my mail.

Letter writing is the only device for combining solitude with good company.

Lord Byron
