LETTER BOXES . Big Ones Little Ones, Some with a Bit of ?

Ginger, first time I've seen one, what a great idea..half the time I think people carry the bags just for show, I watch them on their way back and bags are empty...hmmmmm

Same here Betty ,
Looks good , All for show .
If no one is looking , They stay put .


Run out of Letter boxes so I thought I would add this .
What do yall think ?

LOL That's great! Emusing, even.

We also have problems with people dumping stuff in the creeks. Ruins the creeks. And we have trash service. I hope one day to get a nice revenge. Like hiding and scaring them off or catching them on video.

No doggie bags around here. Small towns, lots of country side-for now.

Ginger, nice what ever that is. :~)

Looks like 5 Green Swans ?????

Oh yeah. lol.

This is a Horse Ranch .
A novel way of using old Horse Shoes .

That is neat!! The birds would love perching on that.

Probably Pep .
Unfortunately I don't hang around long .
I just click and go .lol

Another angle .

Well, hey Kell, cool mailbox, been missing ya!

The last one looks like a covered wagon. lol

Another one similar to the first one .

I am overwhelmed by the support this thread is getting .
It's amazing how many NEW FRIENDS I am making riding my Bike .

Here is another Funny mail Box .
Looks a bit like Elmo ???

Making friends, getting excersize. Not all bad.
You sure have some intresting things to look at along the way.
Hit any wombats in the road?

No hitting cpartschick ,
But plenty of signs .

Thats good. I used to work at a sports shop and met a nice gent that was from Australia. He worked here in Mi for the summer. He was an avid biker (street bike, fast, motor) He said he was scared of hitting a deer.
I asked him about kanagroos, he said, "they are nothing, they will just kill you ....it is the wombats, they are like huge speedbumps, hurts bad when you hit one".
I thought it was a funny remark. I still don't know what a wombat is. But I know they will flip a bike, pedal or motor.
Thanks for the picture! If that sign was here, there would be alot of head scratching.

This Pic was taken in north Queensland .

Wombats are cute - at least they are before you run over them with your bike: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wombat

Interesting critter. I think they can keep that one. Sounds like quite the animal.
Wombat stew anyone? (roadkill of course)

LOL.

Yes Marylyn_TX you are right there .


They are not as commonly seen as many animals, but leave ample evidence of their passage, treating fences as a minor inconvenience to be gone through or under and leaving distinctive cubic scats.

I took this Pic 2 weeks ago @ Girraween NP.
This is what they do to the walking tracks over night .

Ginger, I so enjoy your pictures. Please keep snapping away.

This was first posted here in OZ by CMM .
You need to mow the roof of this one .

Thank you kaperc ,
I do try my hardest .
Here is a link to another Thread I just started today .

Looks like you can keep those wombats.
I agree, keep the pictures coming. We are all enjoying them very much.
Gotta go mow the mailbox, I'll be back.

LOL cpartschick ,
Shouldn't take you long ?

Here is another by CMM .

I like the colour scheme on this one .

LOL. Most people here in the States would paint it either Green/Yellow for john Deere or Red/White for Farmerall (sp?).

We have John Deer here as well .
Only thing is they are mace in CHINA ???????
So much for being American . :o((

There are some made here still too. We are NOT John Deere fans. We like Ford and Farmerall. Every time we see one for sale on the sides of the road my dad and I look at each other then at mom. She sees the tractors and our looks and says no. LOL. She knows us well.

Mothers are no fun , are they ?

LOL. Not when they are holding the checkbook!!

If you work , you should have your own chq account .
Or does she look after that as well ?

I wouldn't be the one buying it. My parents would. We went to a tractor show one year and my dad found one he wanted. It was reeeeaaaalllllly nice. He walked up to mom who was talking to someone else. He asked for the checkbook, she said ok and gave it to him. No questions asked. A little while later she found him over by the tractor getting ready to make a check out for the trac. Took the checkbook away and ever since has been saying no. LOL. She learned the hard way. LOL

Dispatcher: 9-1-1 What is your emergency?
Caller: I heard what sounded like gunshots coming from the brown
house on the corner.
Dispatcher: Do you have an address?
Caller: No, I have on a blouse and slacks, why?

LOL!!

This one might scare the Postman away ???

These are really something. I don't know if the gov't allows things quite that fancy here. I have seen some creative boxes, but they always have a real mailbox stuck in the center and they work around it.
You have quite the entertainment on your biking trips.

Some people would use that to keep unwanted company away. lol
