I'm always amazed at full time artists who have energy and wit left over for mail art.

My 14 year old daughter Hope is going to camp tomorrow and is having a competition with her best friend to see who can get the most mail while they are away.  If you have time, and you are close enough to get mail to just outside Seattle, Washington by Friday the 7th, she would love to hear from you.  Her friend Zoe H. can also receive mail at the same address...
