Someone who has bought us a lot of joy on our travels is Smokey Bear (and not just because a lot of people stick googly eyes on the cutouts of him that are dotted around the country outside fire houses and national parks) We will definitely be sending him a birthday card

My 80th birthday is only one week away! Help me celebrate by sending me a birthday card:

Smokey Bear
Washington, D.C.

Bonus points if you use a Smokey stamp! the President, First Lady, and me are the only Americans with their very own zip code?!
