By the look on your faces easy to tell
you guessed wrong…. again
I was talking about the children, or those with grandchildren a fun idea for you
Down the road over that way (waves the hand) there’s a town with no stop lights, not sure if they even invested in a flashing yellow caution light, the 400 people who live there probably voted down the measure not to invest in such nonsense. As the sign says
The Kewadin Casino in Christmas. This holiday-themed casino is located on Candy Cane Lane for wo have money to waste, and also features Frosty’s Bar and Grill.
Nearby, Bay Furnace Park and Campground are worth snooping around because of the amazing Lake Superior views and the history of the town of Onota. The town was built around a stone blast furnace that once produced 3,500 tons of “pig” of crude iron annually. The furnace still remains today despite a massive fire that destroyed the town in 1877
Sips coffee, where was I, ohh yeah Christmas, not talking local, or even regional, I’m talking worldwide, people the world over send mail there for that post office stamp, reason being, to hear the happiness of the children, they got mail from Santa. If you wait to long, you’ll be SOL, so here’s what ya do.
How to Get Your Mail Postmarked “Christmas”
Fill out your holiday cards or letters to Santa, place them in sealed envelopes, and address the envelopes with names and destinations.
Place a postage stamp on each card to be postmarked.
Put ALL of the self-addressed, pre-stamped cards inside of a box or mailing envelope, and send to: US Post Office, 220 Elm Avenue, Munising, MI 49862.
Once they have been received the post office will postmark your holiday cards and send them off to their recipients As a kid on a fishtug docking in Munising, We must have worn dad down to the point of ” ok, just be quiet already”. We had family in the area who let barrow a truck, we drive up the hill around the bend into Christmas for one reason.
There was a gift store, out back, they had the fattest black bear you or anyone else had ever seen. For 25 cents you’d pull an orange crush from the machine, open it, set it on a shelf, that bear would take it and hold with both paws leaning back drinking it. It was something to see besides fish heads and guts.

waste not, what not
Heard tell these woods are like a old rawhide flap, hanging on to mainstream America, maybe so
People send cards at Christmas, people buy those cards
At one time like in the 1800/1900’s the post office didn’t care the size of the card, people would send leather post cards
Post offices went automated, that did in mailing leather post cards without an envelope
my cards get scooped up
