The Sticky Letter

Pine Knot News subscriber Sean Sundquist is on a quest to get this letter to its rightful owner, as it's now been delivered incorrectly to his own mailbox 10 times. Sundquist lives in Saginaw, the person on the envelope lives in Culver. They have the same street number but live on different highways. They also have the same zip code. Sundquist has previously gotten mail intended for this person. (We blotted out his name here.) In past instances, Sundquist just put any misdelivered mail back in the mailbox and the U.S. Postal Service would take it away, to (presumably) the correct address. This time, the letter keeps coming back. After about the third return, Sundquist started making tick marks on the back of the envelope, as well as dropping the letter at different post offices. As of Jan. 29, there were 10 marks and the envelope was showing signs of wear.
