You’ve Got Mail
Thursday, October 20th, 2011
The meaning and delivery method of mail has certainly changed in the past few years, hasn’t it? These days, handwritten notes sent via “snail mail” are definitely in the minority. Most people prefer the instant gratification and efficiency of electronic email, texting, or instant messaging.
Even though it’s convenient and easy to send correspondence over the airwaves, the time and thought it takes to compose and send a handwritten note is truly appreciated by a recipient. People always seem so rushed these days, so it is considered to be quite a thoughtful sentiment to spend the time choosing a card or stationary, generate a statement, and sit down to put pen to paper and write it down. Some may even fear that penmanship is going to become a lost art, giving way instead to the endless combinations of 1s and 0s that is the language of the computer world.
Also, who doesn’t like to receive mail? I don’t mean the junk stuff that you get from advertising agencies who just want to scam you or take your money. I mean, the good stuff that comes from friends and family and helps you feel like they are thinking about you. Birthdays and holidays aside, a good old-fashioned written letter addressed to you is good for the soul (as long as it contains good news, that is). However, for those days when there isn’t any “good” mail in the box, the sting can be reduced somewhat by pulling the junk mail out of a handsome and rugged mailbox and post combo that is the envy of the neighborhood. The Cedar Lake Deluxe Log Mailbox Post is a strong and sturdy post that is naturally resistant to weather and insect damage. Each of these mailbox posts is about 65” high, ensuring there is plenty of post to put below the ground. The cedar wood also repels mildew and weakening from the onslaught that comes from being underground. However, there is no guarantee that a snowplow doesn’t come along and break it off in the wintertime, so be sure to mark it with a red flag that waves high above the snowdrifts. You want to make sure that both snowplow and mail drivers know where your mailbox is. After all, you don’t want to miss one single delivery of the “good” mail that comes so infrequently these days.
