[Lincolnparkdc] It never fails: I found my package

[Alice Hall]

It was in front of the door of a neighbor who is seldom here (for whom I often take in such packages)/  It had been out all nite and the address was obscured. But I did get it; lucky me, lucky dog.
Thanks anyway folks.   Alice hall

Amazon can also send you a text when your package is delivered, so you don’t need to register with the individual shippers.
