The personal touch is always nice. ;-/

I used to be semi neighbors with a fellow who was a welder and got
tired of the snowplows taking out his mailbox.  He started out by
filling a couple pieces of 4" schedule-80 pipe with concrete and
sinking them thirty feet in the ground, then built up from there.  I
dunno the rest of the details, but I had the mailbox pointed out to
me some years later and it was standing proud.  Seems to me there
might have been some  brick involved, for the look of the thing.  I
suspect he gave the town fair warning.

Merry Christmas,
David
