Normal
Actually, when I went in February, I "walked in" to a very remote post office at the Jersey shore (dead of winter - very few year round people were here) and was shocked to find about a dozen people there for passports. The post office said it has been that way for about 6 months. And when the post office was kind enough to help me find out where the passport was after 8 weeks or so...(they gave me the unlisted number for Philly area processing), Philly told me it's "just crazy". They keep hiring new people, but they can't keep up. They pulled me out and did me right there on the phone and mailed it. So hopefully, it won't get worse. Eventually the backlog should slow up.ps - Lived in Jupiter for 13 years, until I finally got sick of the heat and hurricanes and moved back "home". As you know, we both took 3 direct hits. What are the odds?? Gave away all my lanterns, ice boxes, generators, etc. and said ADIOS!!! Good luck with this year's hurricane season.:daisy
