Photos of Unusual Mailboxes on York Mountain Road
Walking along York Mountain Road in Templeton is like walking through an oak forest. Where the forests have been cleared, you will find small farms, rural estates, and vineyards . Most of the road is shady on one side or the other. One can also spot some unusual mailboxes there. This is one of them.
Some of the oak trees on the road are very old. So are the fences on the edge of the road beside the old oaks. Some of the barbed wire in the fences go in one side of an oak and come out the other. Here is a photo of one tree I saw with the wire growing through it.
You may not live in an oak forest or be able to have mailboxes like these, but that doesn't mean your rural mailbox has to be like everyone else's. Even if you live in the city limits and have your own mailbox, you can make it special. Find yourself an unusual mailbox at Amazon. This link will also show you how to dress up the mailbox you already have for holidays and changing seasons.

Interesting, we don't have those kinds of mailboxes here, but I find them fascinating....
ReplyDeleteI love finding unique mailboxes. They seem to be more common in rural areas.
DeleteI also love mailboxes, especially the unique and unusual ones ... they are perfect for photos. I'm moved by the trees that grew around the fence and mailbox. Time and nature overtake everything.
ReplyDeleteIt was a revelation for me to see that. Until I moved here I'd never had access to such old oak trees in rural residential areas.
