Celebrating our Nation's Post Offices
ADDRESS: 111 W. Beech St., Edgar, Wisconsin 54426
Today’s featured post office is Edgar Wisconsin. Dedication Plaque right on the outside of the building by the entrance. How about that? Not the most thrilling building but its still a post office.

Today’s featured post office is Eastman Wisconsin. I wonder if Eastman Kodak grew up here? Funny but that’s the first thing that came to my mind.

Can you guess why I choose to post this one today? Oh man you guessed right. Today is Columbus Day. and what do I have for you today? The Columbus Wisconsin Post Office. I made a special trip just to view this one. I had some extra time one Saturday in July of 2013 and figured what the heck. Let’s drive to Columbus. So here I am admiring this wonderful post office and mural.
Happy Columbus Day!!!!
Thanks,
David W. Gates Jr.
