RR1/Rural Thursday

One-of-a-kind rural mailbox

I bet everyone who sees this mailbox smiles.

Added later: I think the animal on the mailbox is a dinosaur. Do you think maybe it's a comment about snail mail versus email?

That's pretty cool. But what's the thing behind it that's also covered in mosaic?

That mailbox is a work of art! What a great find. I'm definitely smiling.

RedPat said...

Great fun! I think I'll go with the idea that some kid made the dinosaur just to finish this off properly. ;-))

Lowell said...

I wonder how many people have plowed into a tree while looking at this thing? At first I thought it looked like a woman's purse, but then I realized that no male should ever go into a woman's purse!

cieldequimper said...

I would love to pick up my snail mail in this one!

Ta skrzynka na listy jest niesamowita, widać są tacy, co lubię je otrzymywać. Pozdrawiam.
This mailbox is amazing, you can see there are some things I like to receive it. Yours.

Thank you for sharing at Rural Thursdays this week.

LONDONLULU said...

Haha, I love that! A sight you'd never find in a big busy city. I love that the creature resembles the Loch Ness monster, with reaaally long legs :)

Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...

I love the box -- I was thinking when I first saw that dinosaur (before I read your commentary) that it should be a big snail!!

Jack said...

That is . . . . . ummm . . . interesting.

Kate said...

I think that a mailbox theme would be most entertaining. This one is both colorful and creative.

Rose said...

Oh, that is so pretty. I wondered what the animal was...just might be a comment on snail mail. But I still love a hand written letter.
