    Attended the USPS First Day Issue of the Jimmy Carter stamp on the occasion of his 101st birthday. The venue was most befitting our 39th president. The USPS issued ceremonial programs, pins, and sold first day postal items for cancellation.

    Visited the chapel for a training...Extremely kind and professional staff..The facility shows signs of wear, but I was only in one area. Nice meeting space...Rotunda-ish in nature..
