There really is a mailbox on Mailbox Peak. The hike up to the 4,822 foot summit is brutal. We went up the old trail and ascended 4,000 feet in a little over two miles.

Since I visited last there have been a lot of changes. A new trail has been constructed and the current mailbox is anchored in concrete. Sadly, the propensity of visitors to scrawl messages is no longer limited to writing left in the mailbox. People have written on the mailbox, on the rocks surrounding the mailbox and on the plaques congratulating the trail builders.

We used the new trail to descend. It is still steep, but much easier on the knees than descending the old trail.

My neighbor has a nightly battle with this guy trying to keep him away from her small animals.

The home behind this mailbox has been empty for a long, long time. The fungus is mulit-colored.

This is probably the most fantastic mailbox I have ever seen. The hand stands around 1.5m (5 ft) tall.

Found in Santa Fe.

I spend many hours on a blanket in my front yard playing with an11 month old:) So most of my recent photos are taken while on that blanket under the trees. Gives me time to see the world from another angle, play with focus, and remember the days when I couldn't wait for the mail to come.

The people in my neighborhood have pretty plantings by their mailboxes . I have taken photos of many of them. This will be First in a series.

The infamous black mailbox near the road to Groom Lake. Wish I could write to the aliens and ask them to stop the war.
