Vermont Post Offices

ADDRESS: 108 Elm St., Bennington, Vermont 05201

Another post office we visited after my Appalachian Trail hike in 2007. My parents drove out to pick me up at the end. On our way home we drove through Bennington. I begged them to stop and of course they did. I think this was my mother or father taking my picture in front of this one.

Thanks Mom & Dad for picking me up and putting up with the “hiker smell” and taking my picture.

Reflecting on this one now in 2012 I’m unsure if it’s still an active post office. I attempted to look this one up on the USPS website but I did not find it. Anyone out there know the address or fate of this one? I’m currently pulling some old photos I have archived or in older albums.

My visit to this one was in 2007 as I was hiking the Appalachian Trail. I actually spotted this one as I was crossing the street nearby. I was kind of in a hurry to keep moving so I didn’t stay long. If I remember correctly, it was a weekend and I don’t remember it being open.

Anyway here it is, excuse the large beard, when you’re thru-hiking most hikers don’t shave the entire hike. It is just sort of hiker thing to do.

Thanks,
