Was finally able to check my mail today for the first time in about two weeks (vacation, etc.)

Received a booklet. I'll scan tonight.

I received one some days ago--sorry for the wait. I'll scan in a bit.

For now, the cities in order by page:

Well, sorry I didn't get to this sooner, folks... because... well... it's gotta be a clue. And since I'm in Albuquerque, I suspect it's much less than coincidental.

Ok, my envelope has an "e" on the back and the booklet says "BLUE" on the cover. The cities (in ABC order) are:

8. Deming, NM
2. Farmington, NM
1. Las Cruces, NM
3. Los Alamos, NM
6. Roswell, NM
4. Santa Fe, NM
5. Truth Or Consequences, NM
7. Tucumcari, NM

So far we have 4 out of 5 accounted for, Inju - what color was on the outside of your booklet & were there any letters on the envelope?

It seems too easy but the picture might mean. . .

Please trout me if I've missed this suggestion in the thread, but I don't think I've seen it in my couple of days of lurking this eccentric postal ARG.

As far as the little drawings go, I'm not sure what you're supposed to derive from them exactly, but the mathematical operands suggest to me that they're to read in the normal operand processing order - multiply, divide, add, subtract.

Also my reading of the last picture posted would be that the leftmost item in the second drawing is a cookie, not a sponge. Not sure where that gets you, though.

BZZT. Disregard last post, I'm obviously not on the same wavelength as the Committee.

Solve for the message in those two drawings is GOLD CITY.

Grapes
Oregon
Lemon
Die

Cookie
Icicle
Triangle
Yak

(So the order to read these things is X + / - , for some reason.)

Now, the next question is what to do with that.
