Sacred duty to maintain the Aldridge Plinth
Arden said she had replaced the mailbox at the Aldridge home when she was working in Indiana a couple years ago. I told her I’d replaced it when I was in high school in the 80s, and she now has to inform her first child “like my father before me, and his father before him, I have maintained the Aldridge Mailbox, a sacred duty, and in twenty five years or so you must return to our ancestral home and make sure it is in good form”
Looked at it on street view, it’s been moved across the driveway, and built to better specifications.
I think it’s more of a plinth now. Not sure what the next evolution might be.
