My nemesis Alexander Hamilton made my wife jealous when he gave Mrs. Hamilton a new carriage. But I got my revenge when I took all his money in a card game and he had to give me his horse for payment. That left his wife with a wonderful ornamental carriage for her front yard. Lovely.
These days I go simple. I think there's nothing finer than a card with a postmark from one of the love-named towns around this great country. Here's the list:
Bliss, NY, 14024
Loveland, CO, 80538
Juliette, GA, 31046
Loveville, MD, 20656
Loving, NM, 88256
Loveland, OH, 45140 Romance, AR, 72136
Romeo, MI, 48065
Valentine, NE, 69201
Valentine, TX, 79854
To get a love-themed postmark, mail your stamped, addressed Valentine’s Day cards in a larger envelope to:
Postmaster, (Town name)
Valentine re-mailing
City, State and ZIP Code
