On the Road: Rural Virginia Post Office

On the same trip during which I stayed at the Hummingbird Inn, the missus and I drove down many a country road in rural Virginia. As lush and green as the scenery was, one of my favorite sights was that of a roadside post office. Easily mistaken for an inviting home, housing a grandmother who bakes award winning pies, this post office gave me the warm fuzzies and made me stop for pictures.

I've often thought I'd like to live in a old post office or bank building, as they're often characterized by their ornate, old world charm. But, I think this Brownsburg post office, complete with railing flower baskets and chimney, would do just fine.
