I have been coming to the Giant Mailbox, on my way to Mississippi from Texas, since I was in my mother's womb almost 42 years ago. I now bring my children to see the mailbox on our trips to Mississippi. We will continue this tradition until it is no longer there. Ironically, the mailbox was purchased in Houston, Texas. Fits the saying, "Everything's bigger in Texas."
