Summer edition
Posted by chocho willy on Saturday, May 2, 2020 10:24 AM

Just received my summer addition of GRW magazine and will have to say it is by far the best one to come out in at least the past 5 years, Bill.

Thanks for the compliment, Bill! I'll make sure others on staff see this.

Thanks for the teaser, Bill. I am still waiting for my copy. Must be coming by sailing shipWink... Due to the pandemic, we are back in the era when the arrival of a ship fromabroad is again a news item!

You aren't the first to say that things are delayed with magazines. My guess is that they aren't considered "essential" and may take a bit longer to arrive. I've noticed that even first-class envelopes are taking several days longer.

Thanks, Rene. I had guessed as much and made my post in good humor.  Our mail usually comes in commercial aircraft, but with flights down to less than 10 percent of what they normally are, and, as you said, cargo space prioritized, things have moved back to a simpler time out here.

I know it was all in good fun and I hope you get it soon. If you're hankering to read some things from the issue, remember as a subscriber you have online access to a bunch of things (gardening stories, product reviews, etc.).

All is well! The summer edition arrived yesterday. It must be good, as I can't get it back from my kids!
