To be clear, if found, a snowman built around a regular mailbox would absolutely count
Thanks for the sharing the pic! hilarious.Boomer – maybe the mailbox w/rooster is 882′ (feet) away from something
You have certainly been keen-eyed and prolific in your hunting. Thanks for all you’ve shared!
Alan – thanks for sharing still. I’ve seen a few of them myself (never in the city
. It’s a nice, bright mailbox always though. I’ve even seen an International Harvester one; it wasn’t as cool looking as the Deere though.@bigredboiler 207564 wrote:

You got me hooked on hunting mailboxes now!
We’ve all seen them while on rides, but never occurred to me before to make that a ride objective. Brilliant game that now makes every ride an adventure, thank you.
I’m also trying to be more discerning in my selection criteria now that I “get” what you are looking for. Thanks for the feedback… and curating this great pointless prize competition [emoji1374]

Appropriate mailbox for HokieBeth found in Reston. Across the street was a mailbox cover for that *other* Virginia university whose colors are blue and orange. Yahoos or woohoos or something like that lol

Mailboxes from 2/10/21. I’m really enjoying this challenge, gets me out the door every day! Thanks for the incentive!

804 Triple Crown Rd, Reston near intersection with Glade Dr.
(This may not qualify as the mailbox itself is plain but as a whole with the enamel decorative number plaque and shells at the base of the post, I thought it interesting.)
12634 Magna Carta Dr, Herndon near intersection with Keele Dr
12353 Marionwood Ct, Reston, off of Timberwood Way near where it intersects with West Ox.
12484 Wendell Holmes Rd, Reston off of Quincy Adams
(This may not qualify as the mailbox itself is plain but I found it to be quite lovely taken as a whole, due to the colorful decoration on the post.)Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
More mailboxes from my 2/10/21 ride….
12482 Wendell Holmes Rd, Reston off Quincy Adams
Riders Ln, Reston, approaching Wild Cherry from Steeplechase
11103 Glade Dr, Reston near the intersection with Twin Branches
(This may not qualify as the mailbox itself is plain but having it hanging on chains vs the more traditional pole mount I found interesting.)Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As I was driving around today (shh, don’t tell anyone I also drive for fun), I saw a few “plain” mailboxes that were so plain, I thought they might count. But seriously, I did about a 70 mile drive, and you saw more interesting mail boxes on your ride than I did on my drive. I guess VA folks are more creative.
