Title: SOMEONE STOLE MY MAILBOX!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: TREBOR on August 08, 2005, 11:27:33 am: I JUST HAD TO TELL SOMEONE
I live in the country and have seen what can happen to a mailbox.
but they didn't just hit it
they pulled it up by hand and left with it
this is really weird.
The good side of the story is that I was getting ready to replace it
so they did half the work for me anyway. :lol:

HAVE FUN

There was a license tag lying in the ditch along with some plastic grill parts. We could tell it came from a Dodge Pickup. The cops traced the tag number. Turned out the Pickup had been stolen in Lubbock that night.

it was thrown in the bushes.
cool part is I put up a new one and I put a hive around it
a bottom board, two deeps and a telescooping top.
it looks great!

I wonder if your postal worker is going to deliver your mail???

And another thought...
Leave the entrance open and maybe catch a swarm in the spring :lol:
