For the second time in six months,  some kids whacked my mailbox and put into unusable condition.  If they do this only every six months,  I guess I can keep buying a new one.  Hopefully they won’t be back soon.  Problem is,  after months of drought conditions,  yesterday and today it has been raining constantly (good for the drought, bad for mailbox re-installation)

(Update: New mailbox and bracket installed……13bucks from Hope Depot — after a trip to Lowe’s where they were out of the bracket,  which was 3.97)
