Our New Mail Receptacle II

Here's an update on our new mailbox install -

First and before installing the post yesterday I did my research to make sure I was installing it to the USPS standard and recommendation, and I did just that -

I returned today to install the mailbox itself on the post I installed yesterday. The mounting block was first to be placed and secured -

Then the mailbox itself -

All securely fastened with 2" deck screws!  This dude ain't going anywhere -

Perhaps, it's me but our new mailbox most definitely improves the curb appeal and dresses up the area.  

Honestly, I was a tad nervous about inadvertently bumping into or some how disrupting the other two mailboxes there while installing ours. Other than the silver box lying on the ground, I'm not sure what was keeping each standing. 

Also, seems I need to call and speak to the Post Master at the Opie Anthony road post office in Limestone.  Need to get her approval to start receiving mail without our house being built yet, UGH!  Hoping she will be understanding, fingers crossed 🤞.
