USPS considering closure of Meriden, Wyoming post office

Last week I worked on a story with writer Josh Rhoten about the Meriden, Wyo. post office. The branch there is expected to be one of several on the USPS chopping block. If the small post office closes, it could force some residents to drive up to 50 miles for basic postage services. Read more of the story here.
