Dear Wigleaf,

You can't tell by looking at this average-sized postcard, but trust me when I tell you it was mailed from the world's largest mailbox, which is in Casey, Illinois, home of, also: the world's largest pencil, the world's largest see-saw, the world's largest wind chime, the world's largest golf club, the world's largest rocking chair, the world's largest knitting needles, the world's largest wooden shoes, and a birdcage that's only slightly bigger than one you'd keep for a parrot, but you can sit on its swing like a bashful Tweety Bird and have your loved ones take your picture, so that's something.
 
Did you know the largest things in the world are the things Jesus loves the most? The people of Casey, Illinois remind us of this via the world's largest Bible passages, which are inscribed onto the world's largest pencil, see-saw, wind chime, golf club, etc. You'd think Jesus would love the small things the most, but you would be wrong; Jesus loves monster trucks, skyscrapers, McMansions, blue whales, superhighways, football fields, the Hope Diamond, really long freight trains, Garth Brooks concerts from the 90s, and probably elephants.
 
Love,
Bess
