Awesome mailbox #44
August 22nd, 2010
I'm walking across America.
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out. If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania. You can read all about the details of my trip if you're so inclined.

Here's my progress so far:
It’s green! and I love the leaf designs!
i bet it is programmed to identify bills and then eject them- I want one!
And it’s approved by the Postmaster General.
It really is. To meet the Seismic Energy Standards of 2006 (Postal earthquake cancelation technology). Only required in certain areas with high activity. I think a box of this quality is only required for areas that are situated directly on top of a fault line.
That’s the postal-ejecto model 5000. Strike fear in the heart of nosy neighbors for only $99.95 delivered!
<—–not going to order until I find out what comes after "But Wait! There's more! Order now and receive…."
do I get two for that price>
You must pay SEPARATE Postage & Handling!
fossil mailbox with a modern twist… Modern gear thing. Great mailbox for a engineer I think
A woman photographer I knew about 10 yrs ago from Mill Valley, CA drove about 20k miles around the US with her dog and photographed mail boxes all over the country; later published a book. If you’re into these, I just found this site: http://www.b4ubuild.com/photos/mailbox/index.shtml
Thanks those are nice. But I think I still like the ingenuity and freestyle creativity of people just taking things and putting them together into a mailbox creation of their own.
This mailbox is cute. Looks like you can crank it up or down or spring it back or forth. : ) Looks like a great idea so the snow plow doesn’t get it, if they even have snow plows there.
That was my thought Dorinda… it’s snowplow proof!!! I love the plants painted on the box… nice.
I do too MN Roxanne – love the stencils – giving me ideas about how to spruce up MY Mailbox!
I think this is a husband and wife project! It has a feminine side AND a masculine side.
Yes, exactly! I like how sculptural it is too.
