This is the most current drawing of the no longer open Kaweah Post Office. This card is now available on my website; the older version is only available only in person IF any remain. (The original drawings have sold.)
Reasons to write notes besides saying “thank you”
- Here is the $11 you spent on postage sending my sweater to me.
- This magazine article reminded me of you.
- Here is the recipe you asked for; I wrote it out so you won’t have to waste printer ink.
- I found this old photo of us in which we look like underfed children.
- I made you a bookmark.
- Isn’t real mail fun?
- I forgot to tell you this when we talked last and it is so important I want you to have it in a format you will keep for awhile.
- Wish you weren’t moving to Colorado/Kentucky/Texas/Oregon/Angola.
- My printer is out of ink so I decided to use a pencil.
- I miss you.
- Our post office is terrific and it is good to buy stamps from them so they stay in business because if they don’t where will we mail things that need to be weighed first, like calendars, and packages of notecards for sale, so here is a note just because.
- Here is a happy surprise for you—real mail in your mailbox! (Thank you, Louise!)
This is the older version of the Kaweah Post Office drawing. When these cards are gone, this design will be retired, just like the post office itself.
I bet you can think of a few other ideas yourself.
