I’m so glad I live out in the country down a half mile gravel drive and all of our mailboxes are 75yds. down the drive away from the secondary road.
With all these tops and quilts being shipped for the military barracks project, there have been occasions – during really nice weather – when the carrier has left the packages on top of the mailboxes instead of trying to cram them in or bring them down to the house. I’ve had the neighbors call me by cell from the boxes to ask if they can just bring me my mail. It’s wonderful! And the regular carrier has actually left me little notes about the stuff she’s delivered, wondering about the project. Yet, 7 miles away in a different postal area, the residents do nothing but complain about their post office. I hate going there.
Ours feels like the local gathering place, LOL!
