United States Postal Service Full Service Approved
This “how to” article on stamp collecting was brought to our attention by a Girl Scout troop leader who learned of it from one her enthusiastic troop members.
Lauren is earning her Stamp Collecting Badge and wanted to share this with others who find postage stamps fascinating.
Thank you, Lauren and Mia, for sending us this useful link for people who want to get started with stamp collecting!

Postmaster General Megan J. Brennan
This month, new Postmaster General Megan J. Brennan took the reins from retiring Patrick R. Donahoe as head of the USPS. She is the 74th Postmaster General, and first female Postmaster General, in our nation’s history.
Brennan started her postal career as a letter carrier in 1986, in Lancaster, PA. In her last role as Chief Operations Officer, she initiated an expansion of package delivery to Sundays, pushed for improved tracking of packages, and worked out a delivery deal with Amazon. Clearly, she sees a role for the USPS in the e-commerce economy. Among Brennan’s plans for the future of the Postal Service is a USPS mobile app that will allow users to buy stamps, track packages, and generate shipping labels.
We congratulate Postmaster General Brennan for earning her way to the top spot in the USPS organization and wish her a successful tenure as leader of the largest postal service in the world.

Maybe you remember Gaelic Storm from the movie “Titanic”? This is their song, “Punjab Paddy” from the album How Are We Getting Home? I really thought it would be easier coming up with a St. Patrick's Day Mail Music Monday. I almost gave up on the Irish theme and went for a song that mentioned mail and green. I tried mail and shamrock, mail and leprechaun, mail and Ireland, etc. If you have one that you think is even a better fit, I hope you'll let me know.
