Happy Thanksgiving

All of us here at CCD hope you have a fantastic, warm Thanksgiving. We would like to add that our favorite part of Thanksgiving is eating the left-overs for days afterward! Try not to eat too much stuffing and mashed potatoes... or at least balance it out with some green beans :)

Whose birthday is it, you ask? Ours! While Crystal Clear Delivery has been around for over a decade, it's our five year anniversary of delivering the Washington Post in Page County.

Toto, we are not in Kansas anymore...

As the 5 year anniversary of our time with the Washington Post nears (August 7, 2011) it is a great time to reflect on the amount of changes that have taken place during the past 60 months. When the adventure started back in 2006 we were responsible for the delivery of the Post and Post only in Luray ,Virginia.
