After three and a half years of mailboxes, we're at the four hundredth:
I reeled it in March 12th at 2841 North Tyndall Avenue.
Before I showed you this “box,” I wondered if it was made commercially. First I did a Google image search of that exact image (click there to run it). I found lots of fish, but almost all of them were real. Next I did a Google image search for fish mailbox.
After looking at a few hundred fishboxes, I found a couple of green fish that looked a lot like this one. But they were in locations that seemed a lot closer to abundant fishing spots than Tucson. (Have you heard the saying: “You know you’re from Southern Arizona when… You no longer associate rivers or bridges with water”? :)
The second search above is fun to run: You'll see lots of fishy mailboxes.
With apologies for all of my puns over the years… Please stay tuned for the next 400 boxes.
