Guilty or Not Guilty

@Trish LOL - Not hardly on the bicycle. Presuming because you asked that question that yours does. I'd never heard of that before so did a little research. As it happens there are 50 bicycle delivery routes in the US (in Arizona and Florida). While doing this I went down an internet rabbit hole and learned another fascinating (to me) fact. Hope you find it interesting, too.

Turns out that the route serving Havasupai Indians who live at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, is done by a daily mule train of 10-22 mules that travel 9 miles down to the Supai Post Office. It takes 3 hours to get down and 5 hours to get back up. The post office at the top of the canyon (Peach Springs, Arizona also has walk in freezers for food destined for delivery by this daily mule train.

Who knew!?!

My own USPS deliverer has a little Jeep type mail truck but parks it a few blocks away and walks the route. Goes up one side of the street and down the other so that he returns to his truck when his pack is empty. Then moves the truck and does the next group of houses.

p.s. I'd already written all this out by the time @Right Now answered and didn't want to delete all my hard work (and rabbit hole chasing).

Guilty on paying most of my bills online.

You don't do any financial online business via your phone, only your computer.
 
Guilty, for sure. (I'm glad you also enjoyed that little bit of trivia.)

As long as you have internet access and a working computer, you can't imagine ever being bored.
