got some wonderful news....lol
we do not have a post office in our little pueblo ..... guayabo...
the closest is 25 km away in bagaces....i have always maintained a po box there...
well, seems nov 30 is their last day....will be closing...probably due to economic issues....
the post office here is expensive for the locals and not even close to the counterpart in the u.s. in volume of mail ....nobody mails bills here...period...
when/if you get an invoice/receipt/bill....it is in your email...if you have one....if not...you never get your electric, water, phone bill, etc...
you just have go to places that collect for those entities...not a bad way to go...we give them the cash...they enter the data in computer....voila...
was told that we (customers of box correos, my freight forwarder...which is a part of the post office, called correos) would be notified of what to do...
were told we would have a choice of a postal location in canas (25km from bagaces going south) and liberia (also 25km from bagaces going north)
were also told that the deliveries from box correos would not change...would still be delivered to our door as before)
i just think that the frequency of the trips to guayabo will be greatly reduced....normally a delivery is made 5 days per week....from bagaces as of today....
so wednesday....i will make the trip to gabaces to see how much is there....i have a few things in the pipeline...
one being the pl400....
life is never dull....even though its a much slower pace that the u.s.
lolol
have a great day folks...
