Walking the Mail in the Winter

«Walking the mail in the winter is a pretty unique experience overall. In our modern society one would think it strange that someone would actually have to tromp trough the snow for miles in order to deliver Victoria Secret catalogs and Wal-Mart fliers. But we do.»

    1. I don't remember any mail carrier in the winter... (except for my former mailman in the village, but I haven't any postcard of him!)

  2. I am always surprised to see an old lady who every week drives to the postbox there is on my street. She stops her car by the postbox, sends a letter and drives away.

    4. És de veres, la bústia. Ara me n'he recordat, però he buscat la foto al blog (del grafitti no me'n recordava).

      Has d'escriure la història! :)

      Estàs preparant l'equipatge?
