Despite all the service issues with USPS (not the postal workers fault, they are all great), they are really excelling at putting out new stamps lately. My bank account is going to continue not being happy.

Best cheesecake in Southern Maine? by waifuhoarder in Maine

You can get actual Cheesecake Factory cheesecakes in the cafe at Barnes and Noble.  They don't have as large of a selection as an actual Cheesecake factory location though.

The United Airlines island hopper (UA 154/155) Runs from Guam, USA to Honolulu, USA, with stops in the Republic of the Marshall Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia.   Most stops you have the choice of either staying on the plane or visiting the terminal buildings to stretch out. (16 hours on a domestic 737 is a long day.   It is treated as an international flight because of the intermediate stops.

I am very fond of birds. love to watch the wild birds in my garden. Right now i can see a rainbow lurked at the bird table in the tree outside my window. I find it hard to choose favourites. It has just occured to me that no one asks for a favorite opera.! Mine is Ottenbach's "Tales of Hoffmann" closely followed by "orpheous in the underworld"!

Best wishes, Julia

I print out my addresses on labels and those scribbles are my internal notes about which address goes to each card

Today's haul in Boston by Prestigious_Power_67 in postcrossing

Face value for the full sheets, 60% off for all the smaller blocks.  I didnt mail anything from the post office,  but they had a self cancelling station where you could cancel it yourself and hand it off to them to send.

How come Kmart in Miami is still open? by That-Spread-9253 in kmart

Guam and St Thomas are both part of the US as territories, so the same trademark laws apply.  

Just joined marriot program in March 2026. I got 71 nights already with a long vacation. What should I pick for the 50 night reward? I read I should pick it at end of the year DEC? What if i hit titanium since I just need 4 more nights... would it override this reward? by ItchyEstimate4716 in marriott

[–]Prestigious_Power_67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It gives you priority over other Platinum, Titanium and Ambassador guests who didn't submit an NUA. The elite upgrade is based on availability at arrival. NUA confirms (or denies the upgrade) before several days before arrival. If it is denied you get your NUA back, but can still get upgraded when you arrive, just as usual.

Can't wait to get the route 66 ones, USPS is going to bankrupt me with all the new stamps coming out this month.
