Craig, and all - As I've stated before.... All 1,352 copies of Parker Pages, Volume 26, Issue 2, were shipped from Village Press, our printer/publisher, by truck on a single pallet of several cases of the magazine to the USPS receiving/distribution center in Traverse City, Michigan. They were all processed according to postal zip codes and shipped to the various US Postal Distribution Centers across the country responsible for those zip codes.

Delay problems are not the result of mishandling by Village Press or the Traverse City US Postal Center... The delay problems a few members are experiencing are due to the (lackadaisical) handling accorded to "Periodicals" by these local post offices and distribution centers.

Anyone having ongoing late delivery problems should call or visit their local Postmaster... to begin with.

Thanks everybody for your patience.

As I said above once or twice would be no big deal but a two tonthree week DELAY everytime is unacceptable.

:dh:...sorry.

Dean : Thanks for including my story on duck hunting with hammer guns in the summer issue of Parker Pages. Please send me a couple of extra copies for my friends that did not know I could read or write. Thanks for all of your great work. Neil Compton

Thanks for your contribution Neil - and tell your friends I said you’re a darn good writer.

All contributors are sent three complimentary copies a couple of weeks after the issue is published.

Thanks again!

Dean
