I completely forgot to take a photo BEFORE dropping them in!!! 😲 but here’s the hand that delivered them. The Sanja Festival is next weekend but a part of it will be in your mailbox shortly. Thank you for the support everyone! The stamp: a touch of Japanese summer. Nothing too dramatic ☀️ just some sunny colors and feeling. Let me know when it arrives! -John

The printers were closed but the post office was actually working much of the time!
