Heads Up - Annual Letter Carriers Food Drive is Saturday, May 13th

[thirdeye]

If you are so inclined, tomorrow's food drive is the easiest food drive to participate in because all you do is leave a bag of non-perishable food near your mailbox and your Letter Carrier will collect it. And.... considering that 75% of Americans own a grill, smoker or other outdoor cooking device, a bottle of rub, sauce, marinade, ketchup or mustard sill surely be appreciated. But, it's the thought that counts, and your donations go to a local food bank.

Thanks Wayne. First I heard of it.

I used to get a plastic bag in the mailbox the week before, then they changed to a postcard sized flyer. This year I saw some posters in the neighborhood. I think the postcard was the best advertising.

What the chunk? this is the first I’ve heard of this. Nothing in the box or around it. Typical govt crap I guess. I think I have something I can come up with.

That photo is from about 15 years ago, our weather in May is always unpredictable, and this year is no exception. The last three days have been a slow drizzle with temps in the 40°'s, and I fertilized the lawns on the first day. On the downside, the rain is melting the snow on the mountain and those creeks will likely cause some flooding.
