This is one big post office. I also met a very nice USPS employee who shared a few things with me. Although the artwork here was not commissioned by the Treasury department it was nice to see some artwork. When I asked the employee about it he didn’t really know that much about it. So here you go folks, I hope you enjoy it.

It was difficult to get the entire building in one photograph. There were also a lot of people and cars around the building that photographing it was a challenge.

Thanks,

So I’m driving right through town and spot the Post Office. I stop on the other side of the street, get out to start taking pictures. All is good right?, Well, two minutes later a police car pulls up and parks just opposite of the post office. The officer then gets out of his car, meanwhile I’m just standing there waiting for him to say something or to approach me.

But he was not after a freak taking pictures of the post offices. He opened the back door of the squad car and escorted a man in handcuffs into the building. Apparently the police station is right across the street from the post office. I was so focused on taking my pictures I never even noticed. Makes for great suspense though.

Thanks,
