Clifty Post Office

According to Congressman Ed Whitfield, the Clifty Post Office will stay for the foreseeable future and will even have improvements.

The change of heart by the United Postal Service basically came about because Whitfield decided to make it an issue and the USPS really didn't have much of a reason for closing the post office.

So, here's to the little guy and their powerful congressman who won the day!!!
