This morning, I stopped at Almaden Plaza on the way into work to grab a cup of decaf from Starbucks and to drop a check in the mailbox there (I don’t leave checks in my mailbox at home any more for fear of theft). I failed in both missions.
The decaf of the day at Starbucks was Decaf Verona Blend; I don’t like the regular Verona Blend, and didn’t think the decaf would be an improvement.
And the mailbox across the parking lot was gone — there was still a UPS dropbox, but the mailbox vanished with no forwarding address. You’d almost think the Post Office didn’t want people to mail things any more….
*sigh*
Hi David,
Evidently the elimination of the blue mail drop boxes is an acknowledged trend, along with the antique stamp vending mathines.
