About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked curiously: ‘Why does everyone keep staring at that old mailbox?’ An elderly neighbor leaned over and whispered, ‘That’s not just any mailbox—it’s Wellshire Station’s time capsule!’ The delivery driver looked puzzled but grinned, realizing it was another one of those quirky Denver stories no one quite understands.

2. One day, an elderly gentleman entered the post office and announced loudly, 'I just sent a letter to myself!' The clerk raised an eyebrow but said nothing. A few days later, another customer approached the counter with a big smile. ‘Did you receive my letter?’ he asked excitedly. The clerk shook his head. ‘No sir,’ he replied calmly. ‘But I’m sure it’ll arrive soon!’

3. One afternoon, while sorting letters, a postal worker swore he heard someone whispering their name from behind. When they turned around, no one was there. Curious, the worker called out, ‘Who’s here?’ Only the mailboxes answered back. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned the post office, our hero would shiver and mutter, ‘Did you hear that too? It sounds like… well, it sounds like everyone’s postman!’

4. One morning, a delivery driver exclaimed, ‘Who keeps leaving these mysterious packages?’ It turned out that a regular neighbor had been dropping off packages for someone who’d moved away but forgot to update their address. The packages were filled with cookies and handwritten notes saying, ‘Welcome home!’ Everyone got a good laugh over it, and now the delivery driver brings treats whenever they stop by.
