The Mailboxes of My Neighborhood - Part 1

The application of Mailbox Walking Rules (q.v.) is a little tricky right here at home, but I am motivated by the progress I've made. Here's what the Neighborhood looks like wrt Mailboxes:

Go out the driveway (dirt; down-up) to the Home Mailbox (#1).

Turn right (paved; up) to the hammerhead-shaped cul-de-sac, lined not by houses and mailboxes but by empty lots for sale. Turn right, left, left, left, left, right - and you find yourself heading downhill on the opposite side of the street from the Home Mailbox. Here you find Mailbox #2.

(If you are on Day #2, you turn around, retrace your steps around the hammerhead, and eventually find yourself at the Home Mailbox, whence you go home. If this is a subsequent day, you keep going.)

To keep going, continue on the paved street (down) until it ends at another paved street. Turn right and continue (flat) to Mailbox #3. This is about 500 steps from #2. Return by retracing steps.

To keep going to #4, continue (flat) until you get to it. Retrace.

Now, #5 is the first of a cluster of 3, and it is on the opposite side of the street from #4. This requires going to the end of the street (where it meets a bigger street), crossing, coming back the other side as far as #5, then retracing. #6 and #7 are very similar, but cannot be done today...

Walking the mailboxes in this neighborhood requires crossing washes and the frontages of uneven large lots. But wait till you see what's next!

(Maybe I'll find my camera and take it along for this FASCINATING view of life here in 85745.)
