About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an elderly gentleman arrived early at Edinburg Post Office. As he approached the counter, he noticed a handwritten sign on the door: ‘Today is Tuesday—Mail Delivered Only to Even-Sided Houses.’ The old man smiled and thought for a moment, then turned around and walked back out. Minutes later, a delivery driver arrived with a package addressed to him. 'Even-numbered house?' asked the confused driver. The old fellow winked and said, 'Not today!'
2. One day, a delivery driver left his lunch bag on the counter at Edinburg Post Office. Inside was a mysterious package addressed simply to ‘The Friendliest Person Here.’ Soon enough, an old lady picked it up and asked curiously what it was. Smiling, she opened it and found inside a warm homemade pie with a note reading, 'This is for you—you always make everyone feel welcome!' Turns out, the friendliest person in Edinburg Post Office that day was none other than Mrs. Thompson, who promptly shared her surprise with everyone.
3. A little girl walked into Edinburg Post Office one afternoon and pointed excitedly at something on the counter. "Mama, what's that strange box doing here?" she asked curiously. The clerk smiled gently and replied, ‘Oh, honey, it’s just our new time machine for letters!’ The little girl giggled and ran out, while her mother shook her head with a smile. That evening, a regular delivery driver teasingly told his neighbor over coffee, ‘Guess what? Today I delivered a letter from someone claiming they mailed their package in 1892!’
4. A regular customer entered the Edinburg Post Office one evening, muttering under his breath, ‘Why does it always take so long?’ Little did he know that from then on, every time he said those exact words, someone would appear behind him with the same complaint. Finally, one day an old friend of his walked in and asked, ‘What’s wrong? Why are you always complaining about the post office?’ The regular smiled sheepishly and replied, ‘Oh, nothing really… I just keep saying “Why does it always take so long?”’
