    Default Mail Delivery

    You know ya' live in the boonies when........ the mail is delivered by dog-sled.

    Here is one of the mushers coming into the mail transfer stop from a run from a nearby town approx. 10 miles away. Not a long distance run, but fun for everyone involved nonetheless. Sorry for the harsh lighting as they came in at high noon.



    Handing the mail off to the Postmistress.

    "You know you live in the boonies when" - how appropriate! .... fantastic shots, but #1 is the outstanding one.

    Thank you all so much for the viewing, and comments.
    Always seems to be something different going on round these parts to shoot.

    That is so cool. I didn't know that they still do that in Ontario. I like the first one for the action and the second one for the interaction.

    Awesome. I had no idea that the mail could be delivered in this way. It is such a world away from where I live. Remind me to show you shots of kangaroo mail delivery sometime.
    I welcome all critique and comments on any of my photos
