In Love with Letters (USPS rebrand dream photos)

I'm not presently recalling how at-length I've discussed my passion for letter writing on this here blog. So here goes.

There have been phases in my [adult] life where I have averaged one hand-written letter per day. It was wonderful, utter madness. To keep up, I used to have a calendar where I'd chronicle on which days I'd write which pen pal. Nerd alert.

The mania has died down some (ah, life), but I still have enough pen pals that every trip to the mailbox gets me excited about a possible letter inside, waiting to read! It's one of my favorite times of the day. [insert shout-out to my pen pals!]

So, HOW SAD is it read about the seeming demise of the US Postal Service? Heartbreaking.

Thus, when I saw this clever post about re-branding USPS, I wanted to share it with you all. Love the vintage days-of-yore vibe.

Lookey here for more of the following:

p.s. If anyone out there is looking to acquire a pen pal, let's hook that up.
