It's good you found it now, it would probably be soaked if you looked for it tomorrow morning.

Great positive post for the naysayers and disgruntled villagers.

Well, if you loose power you won’t be able to read yesterday’s news tomorrow (or tonight) electronically. Surprised the POA did not deliver you need that news to, LOL. (BTW, thoughts from a newer villager that cannot understand this newspaper delivery no matter what concept).

I found ours this morning, unfortunately not in good condition, but that is my fault, as I understand this was delivered early, and I was not going out in the wind and rain to get it, so IMHO, the double bagged rain-soaked paper is my fault.

Mine too. No idea when it might have come so didnt go out last night to retrieve it.

This am could have gotten a hernia carrying it toward my house. They could have just cancelled todays paper so as not to put their drivers at risk

I didn’t know the paper came early. I got ours at 7:30 this morning. It was double bagged and nice and dry.

Have had wet papers b4. Nothing new about that. Papers dry out, a little wrinkled, maybe, but still readable.
Incredible effort and reliability of our deliverers deserve our appreciation and respect.
Thank You!
