In 1964 while vacationing in Tennessee I met a young lady cave tour guide. I asked her out, but she declined. I asked for her phone number, but she replied she preferred mail. I quipped I preferred female. For the rest of our trip my dad teased me about not learning her name or number. Once home I wrote her a letter addressed to: “The young female guide, Wonder Cave, Monteagle, Tennessee.” She received it and we corresponded for a year and a half. I even visited her the next summer. My mom was so afraid I’d give her my HS class ring, mom hid it from me, and subsequently lost it.
There was a recent BION, yesterday I think, the there is a pyramid in Mexico the stones of which are in need of repair, but some historians are against the proposed granite replacement. Don’t tell Jan Vormann!
We can’t get mail delivered to the complete correct address. I don’t know how many times I’ve gotten mail for another person on a different street than mine.
When I was a teenager and revisiting Europe, I sent my grandfather a postcard and it was only addressed with the name of the small (300) town in Iowa, plus the state, and the heading of: “Grandpa Nelson.” He received it!

I’m sure Tony & Sarah are thrilled the whole world knows where to find them! Hopefully they aren’t in the Witness Protection Program.

A UK Postcode will direct you to any specific road in the UK… You only need the house number, but generally the name will suffice…

Jan Vormann sounds committed. . . . actually, I think more likely should be committed..

Obviously, the mail service was better at the time the Wrens received their letter than it is these days.
