One of my favorite activities is taking walks around the neighborhood with my family.
It's cheap. It's low impact. It's social.
It's just nice getting out of the house.
We currently live in Wheatland South in Naperville. Our walks take us all through that subdivision, as well as Crestview Knolls next door.
On our walks, I have noticed a nice variety of mailboxes.
I haven't seen any studies, but I believe one's mailbox tells a lot about who they are.
Private? Outgoing? Pet loving? Modern? Classic?
So many different types of mailboxes...
So many different types of people.
Yesterday, while walking with my daughter, I captured some interesting mailboxes that can be found here in Naperville (see below).
What does your mailbox say about you?

-Do you think the owner of this mailbox has any pets?
-This mailbox is perfect for the security conscious. Perhaps they have had a mailbox taken out by local kids having some "fun".
-This mailbox looks basic enough. But it's bright while color and synthetic makeup causes it to stand out a bit from the rest.
-This mailbox has certainly seen better days. There are some large dents in the side. I think some children have been practicing there rock throwing on this one!
-This double mailbox also shouldn't be messed with. That is a serious wooden mailbox post. Probably an environmentalist.
-Ahhh. A lovely pair of cardinals (the state bird of Illinois). I still think it's interesting that male birds have such beautiful colors.
-What do you think this owner does in his spare time? What would a bass this size weigh? Do you think the neighbors appreciate this mailbox as much as I?:)
-This charming mailbox, has a chimney and cedar shingles. I was surprised to see the home didn't also have a cedar roof.
