[tentative] Mail Drops

Dear Friends, Family & Strangers,

          Here is our long awaited for list of [tentative] mail drops. I say tentative because up in the North Eastern states there are a few spots that we may choose to have a mail drop instead of the places I have listed. If we do so, don't worry, I will let you know! In order for the post office to hold the box for us, it must be listed as it is below. [Minus the Nu. 1...etc.] Also, please be sure to put a return address. Anything you want to send in the box [as long as it is NOT perishable] will be much appreciated - things like candy bars, letters from home, peanut butter, snack foods, granola [loose or bars], cookies, dried fruits, trail mix, wet wipes, miniature packs of laundry detergent [the kind for 1 load], bug spray, chap stick, ...really anything that you can stuff in a box! (:

One last thing - I will post [here and on facebook] a date for you to ship the boxes by. It will most likely be a week before we are at a post office to get the package to make sure it's there when we are! (: Thanks to everyone in advance!
