Mailboxes

Justin installed our new mailbox today because the tenants before us had used a P.O. box and there wasn’t one in existence prior to them. So you may wonder what setting up a mailbox entails… well, in Alaska you get a 4x4, some gravel from the road, and notify the post office so that they can put you in their system. Our landlord also warned us that the lady who delivers the mail to this area is about 90 years old and that it sometimes ends up in the snow instead of the box where it belongs. There’s an element of uncertainty on our part so Justin and I plan on sending ourselves a postcard to be sure that we show up on their radar. We’ll see.
