Celebrating our Nation's Post Offices
Post offices with dedication plaques.
ADDRESS: 201 E Main, Murfreesboro, Arkansas 71958
In April of this year we had a short family vacation to Crater Diamond State Park. Since the park is in Murfreesboro, I had to stop at the post office.
Nice Dedication place in the lobby.

My son wanted to dig for diamonds, “Daddy did too”, so we headed to Crater of Diamonds State Park in Murfreesboro in April of this year. We packed the care and drove to Arkansas for a little family vacation.
And yes, it was a long drive and worth it, even if we didn’t find any diamonds. I just hope it is something the kid remembers when he is older. If not we may just have to head back there again.
Of course I had to stop and get pictures of Post Offices along the way. In fact we ended up devoting two days of driving and photographing post offices. Some with murals and others with nothing more than a dedication plaque like Benton AR.
I’m in the process of counting how many post offices we visited. I think it’s about twenty, so stay tuned.
Thanks for following along.

Some post offices just sort of stick out for me. I think I have a preference towards brick and stone buildings. That is one of the reasons I can say why I like the looks of the Salem facility. It may also be the low profile design of the structure too. At any rate, the New Deal building was decommissioned and the is the replacement.
Thanks,
