I ran into the Sedro-Woolley post office today to pick up my mail, and realized that I had my camera in my purse! So I took a photo of the great logging mural that has been in the PO forever - art by Albert C. Runquist in 1941. It is artwork that was funded by an old WPA project; see this site:

Just too bad they spelled "Woolley" wrong...
But those of us who grew up here were lucky enough to enjoy this piece every time we waited in line at the post 0ffice - and still enjoy it today!
