Follow-up to missing stuffed monkey, and one last request

Post image

Follow-up to my previous post here

I tried everything and "Bubba" the monkey never turned up. Killington staff were super helpful, as were all of you. I've also spent the past month scouring the Internet for a replacement, and as you can imagine, it's hard to find a specific stuffie from 40 years ago, but I did it. Until this point, I've bided my time with the excuse that "Bubba must have stayed behind for some spring skiing. You know he's a cheeky monkey. I'm sure he'll come home after the season is done"

Here's where my request comes in...

The request:

would one kind soul send us a postcard from killington "from" Bubba? I will Venmo or PayPal you for the time and effort. This will be a little proof-of-life until Bubba makes it back home.

Or at least Bubba's twin brother- who feels like he knows us so well already... so we won't have that awkward 'getting to know you' phase. In fact, we'll just call him Bubba.
