Long-time readers will remember last winter's mailbox saga. I went to pick up the newspaper this morning when I noticed this:
There are no tire marks this time. No cringing person showed up on our doorstep last night. The top of the mailbox is not by the curb either. This one's probably a deliberate act of vandalism.
Oh no! I'm so sorry to see this. I can't believe the trouble you've had with mailboxes!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that Lak.
ReplyDeleteFor some mailbox-related levity I will point to my friend's blog. He moved to Australia late last year and had a few interesting mailbox-related posts.
His moniker is Kanga (a name he used before he knew he was moving to Australia). His girlfriend is referred to as H-Bomb.

I'm sorry to hear that too. I hate those damned street-side boxes. They installed them on DeBarr (ugly, ugly ones--so ugly I wrote a little poem about them) but I refused and as long as I live here and my box stays on my porch I am lucky enough not to have to deal w/ them. I feel for mailmen (my son was one for awhile until physically it got to him) but I love my porch mailbox!
ReplyDeleteUh Oh! Feeling for ya here.
