Mailboxes, a usual necessity to receive mail from the U.S. Postal Service.
: : :
Quite often in rural areas,
I see more customized mailboxes than I ever do in urban areas.

Here,
along a stretch of very rural gravel road
in the Palouse region of southeastern Washington state,
I came across this large mailbox painted in flames.
I chuckled to myself as I took a couple shots,
it gave a new meaning to
‘hotmail.’

Hotmail really does say it all! Happy Rurality Wednesday, Madge.
I need to do something like that with our old mailbox. Very cool find Madge.
I am cracking up over the title. Love it.
Missed you while I’ve been gone. Hope all is well with you!
That box looks like it wants to go places♫ Nice find.
NOW ya Dun It!!! I’m gonna have to dig out old photos to show you the rural mailbox – in Tulare, CA – it was all important to me – because it was a connection to my own world – rather far away (unwanted city kid . . go figure) . . . I got so attached to mailboxes – I painted one with flowers all around for a final exam in University. ALL my classmates were normal – it was Arizona – land of cacti, sunsets, palms and donkeys . . which perfectly describes every other piece submitted for that class. Mine was a dream “Hawaii” Mailbox . . . I even had to get special permission to use silver for my exam . . . . aced the class, too-
Mailboxes . . . . Primal need for a few of us.
love & love,

Very clever.
There are some really…uh…different mailboxes, out in the country. Maybe HOAs in town, don’t have such good senses of humor.
Very creative mailbox and fantastic shot of yours!
Too cute, Madge! What an eye you have!!!…:)JP
Always love your shots Madge and they are so representative of where you are!
Hi Madge, I love working on my large garden/yard and this summer has been great both for getting lots of projects completed as well as working on the the over all garden. Thanks for hosting.

Very cool!
Snazzy mailbox, but it looks really short. Maybe my eyes are playing tricks.
Now, that’s a fun one!
Lovely shot of this mailbox.
greetings from Holland, Joop
I really got to remember this meme…
I love this shot…or maybe it is your title…either way, it is great!
