It's February ~ the LOVE month!!!

It's hard to believe that it is the first day of February already! (I shouldn't admit this, but my outdoor Christmas lights are still up! It's been sooooo COLD here in Nebraska... that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! :)-

Only 14 days until Valentine's Day! If you're looking for a creative Valentine's Day idea for a friend or loved one, you might consider taking advantage of the US Postal Service's love-themed postmarks for Valentine cards and letters. The postmarks are offered from several love-themed communities across the nation, and they are easy to obtain. Simply enclose pre-stamped, pre-addressed envelopes and mail in a large stamped envelope to:

Postmaster (Town Name)

Valentine Re-mailing

City, State ZIP Code

The following is a listing of a few of the Post Offices that are offering special "love-themed" postmarks:

Bliss, NY 14024

Loveland, CO 80538

Loveville, MD 20656

Loving, NM 88256

Romance, AR 72136

Valentine, NE 69201 (I've used this one many times! :)

Valentine, TX 79854

Valentines, VA 23887

It really is FUN and makes your Valentine's even more special!!
