Not too exciting when you look at the major changes we've made in the house, but it is one of the more notable improvements we've made to the exterior to date. The old mailbox was rusty and too low. The wood post was split, the paint was peeling at best, and showing some mold. Initially we considered repainting the box and post but on second look they really needed replacement. They were beyond saving.
So a few hours of work and two trips to Lowes later, we have a new mailbox!
