ADDRESS: W7101 Main St., Conrath Wisconsin 54731

The best post office ever the day I was out driving last summer. The wonderful red, white and blue sign along the street really stood out as you approach this cute little post office. Upon closer look one will notice the old-fashioned stenciled sign above the door. The weathered look of the sign and basic exterior of the building add so much character. I was delighted to come across this one back in July of last year.

Thanks,

What may not be noticeable in the few pictures I have is that the Cedar Grove post office is right among residential homes. It’s almost as though this corner should have been a single family ranch. I stopped on the other side of the street got out of my car and waited. A few people were walking into and out of the post office while I was there. So what do you think of my photographs? Was it worth the wait? Are you impressed?

Thanks,

Catawba Wisconsin Post Office

ADDRESS: W9208 US Highway 8, Catawba, Wisconsin 54515

I hate to even say it or think it, but it appears this is the typical post office slated for closure. It would be a shame, it has so much character. The look and feel of times past is so prevalent.

I’ve often wondered what the name Catawba means. I ran across another Catawba in Virginia when I was hiking in 2007. Feel free to share your profound knowledge here.

Thanks,
