Celebrating our Nation's Post Offices
Post offices with dedication plaques.
ADDRESS: 301 E. Congress Pwky., Crystal Lake, Illinois 60014
My home town post office. What more could I ask for? A nice large lobby. A nice dedication plaque dated 1992. I look forward to the day when artwork appears at this office. How can I make this happen? Maybe some historical photos of the post office?
Thanks,

Another post office I visited during my 2010 Pacific Crest Trail was the Big Bear Lake Post Office. Big Bear was a busy place and I had a difficult time getting a clean photograph of the front of the building.

During the summer of 2006 I visited St. Louis Missouri. One of my personal bucket list of places to visit is the Anheuser-Busch Brewery. Turns out we took Amtrak to get there.
We headed over to the brewery and also made it over to Grant’s Farm. Along the way we somehow made it to two post offices. This week I’m featuring both post offices we visited during this summer vacation. This was also one of the first times I learned about dedication plaques. The rest as they say is history.
Thanks,
