I won this auction right after Thanksgiving; it arrived in eastern Oregon on December 1, and on the 2nd it was in Troutdale, just outside of Portland, about 3-4 hours from here.
It sat in Troutdale for 4 days, and was shipped north to Kent, Washington, where it's been for 3 days.
What do you suppose is the reason for this rather unusual route? 🤔 🙂
Mark in Oregon
And now you know why the USPS is broke. If I send a letter to someone in Seymour it goes all the way to Indianapolis where it's post marked then back to Seymour. About a 100 mile trip.
