As a curious toddler, whenever I caught a glimpse of a UPS truck, I would grin from ear to ear. Sadly, the truck always passed my home to stop at my neighbor's door.
Now as an adult, another brown and yellow-colored theme gets me excited, but it never fails to disappoint me.
Even with all the perks of modern technology, the packages and letters I pick up from my PO box at St. Bonaventure’s post office always seems to put a smile on my face.
My parents even wondered if part of the appeal for their eldest daughter to attend Bonaventure was that the college has it’s own post office.
There is no greater thrill then walking over to the campus post office, turning that three-letter combination, on the first attempt, and finding a handwritten envelope or, better yet, a package slip in my PO box.
According to family folklore, my passion and fervor for the striking color combination of brown and yellow started early.
My mom says my next package filled with vitamins and treats is on route to my PO Box.
