Good morning everyone. Boy this month is flying and it’s almost May! With Mother’s Day around the corner a lot of people will be going to the post office to mail cards.

Never have cared much for the PO, but traveling to this one would have been a blast . . . Didja know?

From 1939-1942 there was an undersea post office in the Bahamas.

Interesting factoid. Were they hiding from embarassment because of their slow delivery service, or was that their lost mail dept.
