Postmistress Mama Priscilla at the Shenge Post Office

The photo above is the post office in Shenge where we sent and received mail as Peace Corps Volunteers. Mama Priscilla, mother of the paramount chief and an exceptionally kind woman, was the postmistress. Our mail was all in the form of airletters, sheets of light blue airmail stationery that we folded and sealed with the message inside and the address outside. Mama Priscilla opened her post office window two afternoons a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays, for a couple of hours.

We live on the American side of the Atlantic now, in Durham, North Carolina, where we do email, and we love hearing from friends. We also appreciate feedback on this site and comments on the collection.
