Hmmm...does this meet US Postal Service specs? :D

I like it. Radio control to drive it back to the house is the next step, eh?

Seriously, you have a family that loves you, clearly!

My house is behind me from that picture, I can see my neighbors house from the end of my driveway and as far as I’m concerned that’s way to close. I wish I lived farther out but work is already an 80mile commute.

Welcome to the Expo!

Awesome mail box!

I'm originally from Orange County! I sure miss the area! Grew up in a very rural area too!

Thank you. There is some good spaces out in the Northwest as well.

I've always liked Canada we use to vacation near Perth each year growing up. Now you've been everywhere, where was the most off the grid area that a person could actually live that you saw while on your trips?

She seems to like it, but I'm starting to worry that it blends in with the backgroud to much and somebody is going to clip it cause thay can't see it. I might paint the post a brighter color. I'll tell you I wouldn't want to hit it, the thing is about 50Lbs.
