Just a Geek

This past Wednesday I believe I may have forever cemented my fate as a geek. To celebrate one of the 10,000,000,000 different Star Wars anniversaries the USPS created 400 R2D2 mailboxes and scattered them throughout the US. When I heard about this I knew that I had to see it there was one near me. I could think of nothing better than having my picture taken with an R2D2 mailbox!



So, this past Wednesday me and a friend set out on a epic journey throughout St. Louis in search of the elusive R2D2 mailbox. It really wasn't as difficult as I make it sound. Someone with WAY more free time than I has taken the time to list out where all the assorted mailboxes were located along with pictures (I love frapper). Turns out there are 4 mailboxes in St. Louis. On Wednesday I visited two of them.


Here are some pictures of the mailbox (and me) that is located in downtown Clayton on Central Ave:



And here is the one on Delmar Blvd. in the St. Louis Loop:



It was drizzling outside and kind of cold (for April) but this adventure was the most fun I've had in while. Go find the R2D2 near you!
