When I bought my house in 2006, one of the many things I did not like about it was the mailbox.  To me, it looked like they started to put it up, and then stopped and did this.  I really don't have a good description for it, other than "BAD."  So I have been determined to do a better job then the builder for three years now.  Since I have a little time on my hands, the time is now.
