A postcard arrived years late this week, and the timeline behind it is the part that lands hardest. It's one of three stories on this Good News Tuesday, sitting alongside a small town entering a centuries old international competition and a running debate over which old fashioned job would actually hold up today.

 

A small East Coast town is entering that centuries old tradition on the international stage, and the specific event has never come up on this show before. The whole idea started as a joke about what modern day news delivery already looks like.

 

There's also a back and forth about which old fashioned job would actually be worth having, and a national spotlight moment for one of the country's most photographed lake regions, courtesy of a very famous late night TV host.
