Celebrating our Nation's Post Offices
ADDRESS: 250 S. Hallett Ave., Swanton, Ohio 43558
The Swanton Post Office is not to far from my girlfriends parents house. As we were leaving Ohio, we stopped to get a picture. A simple painting on the wall read “we’re high on service”. I enjoy finding surprises like this during my visits.
I did not notice a dedication plaque at this location.

Another photo from my archives. This one of the Fort Lauderdale South Side Station post office. Nothing more to report for this one. It’s from the archives and prior to me looking around for other interesting features.
For my long time readers, I starting taking pictures of post offices many years ago. When I initially took this picture of the Fort Lauderdale South Side Station I was not into looking around and enjoying them as I do today. This picture was one of the first pictures I took once I decided I wanted some indication that I had been to Fort Lauderdale.
When I first starting taking pictures it was just to remember where I’d been. So here is the Fort Lauderdale South Side Station.

Wow! It feels strange to be writing 2012. Happy new Year Folks. Today I visited the Lake Zurich IL Post Office. Most business were closed for the holiday including the Lake Zurich, Illinois Post Office. However, I was still hoping to get a few visits today.
Lake Zurich was my first stop. It’s a newer building with no dedication plaque in the lobby. It’s a rather large building with unique points on the front fascia of the building. The signage is the newer USPS. There is a blue plaque like sign on the front of the building indicating the city.
Newer buildings such as this are fine and serve their purpose. However, I’m after the older more unique ones. On to my next visit for the day. What will it bring?
