Addendum #2: Overlooked Northgate Box
348) Faithful readers know that I often cite the mailbox inside Northgate Mall as the saddest mailbox in all of Seattle. Not only that, but I was sure it was the only box at Northgate Mall.
I was wrong. I was so wrong.
Earlier this evening we were about to pull out of the mall parking lot when I spied -- could it be?!? -- a heretofore unknown mailbox, standing guard outside the doors on the east side of the mall. You can see the absolute shock on my face.
I really don’t know how this one escaped detection. Sure, it wasn’t on my original list of boxes, but in the past year I have probably walked right past this box a half dozen times without ever noticing it. So tell me, does that say more about me... or the box itself?
