The Mail Castle is Dead

Finally! Victory was ours when Tony struck the final blow that de-posted the mail castle for good.




We replaced it with a fabulous new mailbox that my Dad adorned with antique Ohio license plates, one of which was my grandpa's (initials RGF).



Free mail castle for anyone who wants one. Interested? See curb.

    1. Our mail carrier seems to like it; she started using the new mailbox the very next day, even though the mail castle was still there for two weeks! I am looking forward to a conversation with her to see what she thinks for sure.

  3. Nice work! I'm sure my students could fashion something out of that
    castle box, but I will have to decline due to lack of space, shipping costs, and overall hideousness;)
