Hello and thank you for your wonderful box.
First of all I would like to thank you on behalf of the entire TPD. All 13 of us enjoyed the goodies that were sent. We received the Christmas box shortly before the first of the Year and the Valentines Box was received Saturday. All the stocking stuffer and Hearts added to the festivities and the parties we held.
Please do not fear-All the packages were sent early enough-mother nature caused a mountain to slide and block the main road. This blocked all traffic and deliveries for weeks and months. We expect the route to be opened by March 5-9th. Consequently mail service has been delayed and or rerouted and delayed.
Normally boxes take 10-14 days but now 14-28 day. Every single one of us appreciates the hard work and dedication you demonstrate by taking the time to add a bit of joy to our lives.
Thank you and God Bless
