    Howdy! Joe,

    Where You saw our Name on the Mailbox, there is a place for Number stickers too, but they didn't stay stuck to the plastic as good as the Name stickers did, so later I got some Metal Numbers at the Hardware Store and put them
    on the Wooden Post the Mailbox is on.

    The last time I replaced the Post I took the Numbers off of the old Post
    and didn't nail them on the new Post because the numbers were faded out.

    A few days after You visited us, the Wife re-painted the Number Signs and
    I nailed them on the Post.

    At least our neighbors were able to help You find Your way to our place
    even if there wasn't any Numbers to help You find the place.

    When You got back to West Virginia did You find a bunch of ROUNDTUITS
    waiting for You?

    My story is the numbers were removed to confound me. That's my story and
    I'm sticking to it! :)

    I was busy with a host of things that needed tended to. :)
    I wanted a few days to rest up from my trip. :)
