You’ve Got Mail—or … Not!
Well, those campers whose folks stopped by the camp office on opening day to deposit letters—written in advance—into bins labeled by desired date of delivery probably received all their “mail.”
My campers did not fare so well, hahaha! Caroline received only six of the twelve postcards I sent via the United States Postal System; Emmy received eight.
Despite the dismal performance of the USPS, my feelings about the faux-mail system at Takodah haven’t changed. I understand the intent and can see the merits, but I’m still not buying it. Real mail is real mail, and that’s what I plan to send again next year!
While I’m here waving my stick-with-tradition flag, I’ll share two more paintings from family camp 2015. Please smile with me as you take note of the sticks propping up cabin shutters : )

I’m grateful that real mail still exists : )
Grateful to hear that you love, love, love my colorful laundry paintings! I’m so enjoying revisiting them—they are deeply evocative for me.
