Leaf River Illinois Post Office

December 24, 2012 By David W. Gates Jr.

Leaf River IL Post Office 61047

ADDRESS: 116 Main St. Leaf River, IL 61047

Ok, I’m trying to figure out what brought me out this way. I took this picture back in August of this year.  Old age starting to sink in, or just too many post offices visits to remember? I don’t know!

Thanks,

David W. Gates Jr.

    David,
    I love that little post office! I think those small ones have some character that the bigger ones don’t.

      Hi Deano,

      Yeah, those small ones are pretty neat and fun to visit.

      Take care,
      POF

        Fun Fact about this post office. I was a little over 3 years old when my Dad built this post office. We lived next door to the south. My Mom still owns it. I’m 52 now and will be 53 in April. That Post Office will be 50 in may of 2019.
