The Bradleys, led by Uncle Joe, scheme on ways to make the government change their minds and keep the Hooterville substation open. Their plan is to encourage all the valley residents to mail themselves preferably parcels, but also letters, to show that there is a need and demand by the valley for that substation to remain open. The residents agree, so much so that Sam has no time to run the store as he is dealing solely with the mail. Uncle Joe takes a photograph of the overloaded post office, with the intention of going to Washington DC to show the photograph to his local congressman for his support in the matter. Janet and Bobbie Joe tag along to Washington for moral support. Getting to see the congressman is a difficult task, so the threesome take a tour of the city while they wait for their appointment. The exploits of the three in DC may decide the fate of Hooterville's post office. Written by Huggo See less
