The Tiny Post Office has seen better days. The old building has been moved from the east side of Highway 12 to the west side at the corner of Roth Road. Gone is the post office sign. The fading white-and-blue paint is the only thing that would identify it has having once been a post office instead of a small storage shed with windows. If the land is developed -- as it is rumored to soon be -- I'm not sure that the post office will survive, but I hope it does.
