blue jays


the flip side of this envelope has a pencil drawing of the two jays. i guess i could not decide what to do with it, so iturned it over and addressed the other side. when i do casual little letters, i like to keep the cap just slightly larger than the rest of the letters. i often see students who are making the caps big and i think they would look better smaller, but i never have a good reason. it's just my personal preference. maybe others feel the same way? compare this to yesterday, the J did not need a crossbar.

    i googled 2010 usps stamp designs. sometime this fall they will come out with the complete list of stamps for 2011. i don't know if they still offer the catalogs that had the posters in them. they were very nice. you signed up to get them through 1-88-STAMPS-24. But, they looked to me like very expensive publications. I'm guessing they are part of the reason the USPS is in such bad financial trouble.
