Last year because the dogs barked when he came up on the porch, he reported vicious dogs and we were told that there would be no mail delivery to us until we installed a mailbox next to the sidewalk. It took almost a year to get that straightened out. Adam is as stubborn as I am and he didn't want to put a mail box where they instructed. So while this battle raged on we had to rent a mailbox. It finally got taken care of and we do get mail here at the house in the original mail box. And that's good, although with the trainees you never know what time of day you'll receive mail.<br /><br />Wish your Gary didn't have to retire, but I am glad you got your package full of wonderful goodies!!<br /><br />Enjoy, Bobbie!<br /><br />SylviaSylvia Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05484577678585907669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618685271512418876.post-77137078853245783862009-11-17T09:41:52.930-05:002009-11-17T09:41:52.930-05:00If that happens again, take a photo before fightin...If that happens again, take a photo before fighting to get the mail out .. and then photograph any crumpled mail.. then send it to your local post office manager .. it might be a hassle but it will certainly stop whoever is so disrespectful of your mail.Darylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08241795455748298624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618685271512418876.post-17932799152681065242009-11-17T07:20:43.574-05:002009-11-17T07:20:43.574-05:00I will miss Gary dearly.

I had asked him if he knew who would be taking over his route, but he didn't know. The only thing he could tell me is that when the postman or women retire, they are not hiring anyone else, so the other's have to take up the slack. It could be 5:00 before we get our mail.
