Something else I forgot about small town Texas

The mail is delivered by truck to larger processing centers, so there are alot of small towns on the carriers rout. If you want to get mail postmarked the same day, you need to get it into the P.O. building, because the mail is collected from the boxes when the mail truck is near. In Hondo it's 5:45 PM- only- daily or 3:55PM on Saturdays. If you miss that, then you need to find someone going to San Antonio the next morning.
